JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 4.2 friction

If the radius of curvature of the path of two particles of same mass are in the ratio \(3:4,\) then in order to have constant centripetal force, their velocities will be in the ratio of:

  1. A  \(\sqrt{3}: 2\)
  2. B  \(1: \sqrt{3}\)
  3. C  \(\sqrt{3}: 1\)
  4. D  \(2: \sqrt{3}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A)  \(\sqrt{3}: 2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given \(\mathrm{m}_1=\mathrm{m}_2\) \(\text { and } \frac{\mathrm{r}_1}{\mathrm{r}_2}=\frac{3}{4}\) As centripetal force \(F=\frac{\mathrm{mv}^2}{\mathrm{r}}\) In order to have constant (same in this question) centripetal force \( \mathrm{F}_1=\mathrm{F}_2 \)…
