Question

At any instant, the magnitude of the centripetal force on a particle of mass 'm' performing circular motion is given by (ω = angular velocity and v = linear velocity of the particle) ______.

पर्याय

• `(momega^2)/"v"`

• `(m"v"^2)/omega`

• `(m^2omega^2)/"v"`

• mωv

Answer 1

At any instant, the magnitude of the centripetal force on a particle of mass 'm' performing circular motion is given by (ω = angular velocity and v = linear velocity of the particle) mωv.

Explanation:

Centripetal force F = `(m"v"^2)/r` = mrω² mωv (∵ v = rω)
