JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 3.2 motion in plane

An object moves at a constant speed along a circular path in a horizontal plane with centre at the origin. When the object is at \(x =+2\,m\), its velocity is \(-4 \hat{ j }\, m / s\). The object's velocity \((v)\) and acceleration \((a)\) at \(x =-2\,m\) will be

  1. A \(v =4 \hat{ i }\,m / s , a =8 \hat{ j }\,m / s ^2\)
  2. B \(v =4 \hat{ j }\,m / s , a =8 \hat{ i }\,m / s ^2\)
  3. C \(v =-4 \hat{ j }\,m / s , a =8 \hat{ i }\,m / s ^2\)
  4. D \(v =-4 \hat{ i }\,m / s , a =-8 \hat{ j }\,m / s ^2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(v =4 \hat{ j }\,m / s , a =8 \hat{ i }\,m / s ^2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(a _{ c }=\frac{ V ^2}{ r }=\frac{4^2}{2}=\frac{16}{2}=8\,m / s ^2\) \(\overrightarrow{ V }=4 \hat{ j }\) \(\rightarrow a _{ c }=8 \hat{ i }\)
