The angle between velocity and acceleration of a particle describing uniform circular motion is

  1. A \( 45^{\circ} \)
  2. B \( 60^{\circ} \)
  3. C \( 90^{\circ} \)
  4. D \( 180^{\circ} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \( 90^{\circ} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

As the lift is freely falling, thus its acceleration in down ward direction \(\mathrm{a}=\mathrm{g}\)
Let the mass of the body be \(m\) and force acting on it due to spring be \(F\).
Writing equation of motion for the body: \(m a=m g-F\)
Or \(\mathrm{mg}=\mathrm{mg}-\mathrm{F}\)
\(\Longrightarrow \mathrm{F}=0\)
Thus no force is acting on the body due to spring, so the reading of the spring balance is zero.
