JEE Main & Advanced Physics Two Dimensional Motion Question Bank Uniform Circular Motion

  • question_answer
    If \[{{a}_{r}}\] and \[{{a}_{t}}\]represent radial and tangential accelerations, the motion of a particle will be uniformly circular if                              [CPMT 2004]

    A)             \[{{a}_{r}}=0\] and \[{{a}_{t}}=0\]

    B)                    \[{{a}_{r}}=0\] but \[{{a}_{t}}\ne 0\]

    C)                 \[{{a}_{r}}\ne 0\] but \[{{a}_{t}}=0\]             

    D)                 \[{{a}_{r}}\ne 0\] and \[{{a}_{t}}\ne 0\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    In uniform circular motion tangential acceleration remains zero but magnitude of radial acceleration remains constant.
