AP EAMCET · PHYSICS · Motion In Two Dimensions

A particle is moving on a circular path with a constant speed \(v\). Its change of velocity as it moves from \(A\) to \(B\) in the figure is

  1. A \(2 v \sin \frac{\theta}{2}\)
  2. B \(v \sin \theta\)
  3. C \(\frac{v \sin 2 \theta}{2}\)
  4. D \(2 v \sin \theta\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2 v \sin \frac{\theta}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The given situation is shown below From above figure we can observe that velocity vector (tangential to circle) can be resolved into horizontal \(\left(v \cos \frac{\theta}{2}\right)\) and vertical \(\left(v \sin \frac{\theta}{2}\right)\) components. As, particle is executing…
