Non-Uniform Circular Motion

A particle of mass 'mm' moves along a circle of radius 'rr' with constant tangential acceleration. If K.E. of the particle is 'EE' by the end of third revolution after beginning of the motion, then magnitude of tangential acceleration is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Work done by tangential force = gain in KE: E=matsE = m a_t s
  2. Distance in 3 revolutions: s=3(2πr)=6πrs = 3(2\pi r) = 6\pi r
  3. at=E6πrma_t = \frac{E}{6\pi r m}
  4. So the answer is (b).
