Centripetal Acceleration & Force

A body performing uniform circular motion of radius ' RR ' has frequency ' nn '. Its centripetal acceleration per unit radius is proportional to (n)x(n)^x. The value of xx is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. a=ω2R=4π2n2Ra = \omega^2 R = 4\pi^2 n^2 R.
  2. aR=4π2n2∝n2\frac{a}{R} = 4\pi^2 n^2 \propto n^2, so x=2x = 2.
  3. So the answer is (b) 2.
