  • question_answer
    The position vector of a particle R as a function of time is given by \[\mathbf{R}=4\sin (2\pi t)\hat{i}+4cos(2\pi t)\hat{j}\] where R is in metre, t is in seconds and \[\text{\hat{i}}\] and \[\text{\hat{j}}\] denote unit vectors along x and y-directions, respectively. Which one of the following statements is wrong for the motion of particle?                    

    A)  Acceleration is along - R

    B)  Magnitude of acceleration vector is\[\frac{{{v}^{2}}}{R}\], where v is the velocity of particle

    C)  Magnitude of the velocity of particle is \[8m/s\]

    D)  Path of the particle is a circle of radius

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    (i) The position vector of a particle R as a function of time is given by \[\mathbf{R}=4\sin (2\pi t)\mathbf{\hat{i}}+4cos(2\pi t)\mathbf{\hat{j}}\] x-axis component, \[x=4\sin 2\pi t\]                       ?(i) y-axis component, \[y=4\cos 2\pi t\,\]   ?(ii) Squaring and adding both equations, we get \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}={{4}^{2}}[si{{n}^{2}}(2\pi t)+co{{s}^{2}}(2\pi t)]\] i.e. \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}={{4}^{2}}\] i.e. equation of circle and radius is 4 m. (ii) Acceleration vector, \[\mathbf{a}=\frac{{{v}^{2}}}{R}(-\mathbf{\hat{R}})\], while v is velocity of a particle. (iii) Magnitude of acceleration vector, \[a=\frac{{{v}^{2}}}{R}\] (iv) As, we have \[{{v}_{x}}=+4(cos2\pi t)2\pi \] and \[{{v}_{y}}=-4(sin2\pi t)2\pi \] Net resultant velocity, \[v=\sqrt{v_{x}^{2}+v_{y}^{2}}\] \[=\sqrt{{{(8\pi )}^{2}}(co{{s}^{2}}2\pi t+si{{n}^{2}}2\pi t)}\]                 \[v=8\pi \]      \[[\because \,co{{s}^{2}}2\pi t+si{{n}^{2}}\pi t=1]\] So. Option (c) is incorrect.
