                                                    A particle moves along a circle of radius \[\left( \frac{20}{\pi } \right)\] m with constant tangential acceleration. If the velocity of the particle is 80 m/s at the end of the second revolution after motion has begun, the tangential acceleration is:

    A)                                                                                                                                                                                                                 \[160\,\pi \,m/{{s}^{2}}\]

    B)                 \[40\,\,m/{{s}^{2}}\]

    C)                 \[40\,\pi \,m/{{s}^{2}}\]         

    D)                 \[640\,\pi \,m/{{s}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                               Key Idea: The tangential acceleration in a circular path is the product of radius of circular path and angular acceleration. The tangential acceleration                 \[{{a}_{T}}=r\alpha \]                     ...(i)                 From 2nd equation of motion in rotational motion,                 \[{{\omega }^{2}}=\omega _{0}^{2}+2\alpha \theta \]                 Here,     \[{{\omega }_{0}}=0,\,\omega =\frac{v}{r}=\frac{80}{20/\pi }=4\pi \,\,\,rad/s\]                 \[\theta =2\times 2\pi \,rad\]                 \[So,\alpha =\frac{{{\omega }^{2}}}{2\theta }=\frac{{{(4\pi )}^{2}}}{2\times (2\times 2\pi )}\]                 \[=\frac{16{{\pi }^{2}}}{8\pi }=2\pi \]                 Hence, from Eq. (i), we have                 \[{{a}_{T}}=r\alpha =\frac{20}{\pi }\times 2\pi =40\,m/{{s}^{2}}\]
