Angular Variables

A particle is moving in a radius RR with constant speed vv. The magnitude of average acceleration after half revolution is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. After half a revolution the velocity reverses: ∣Δv⃗∣=2v|\Delta \vec v| = 2v.
  2. Time taken t=πRvt = \frac{\pi R}{v}.
  3. aavg=2vπR/v=2v2πRa_{avg} = \frac{2v}{\pi R / v} = \frac{2v^2}{\pi R}.
  4. So the answer is (c) 2v2πR\frac{2v^2}{\pi R}.
