The angular speed of a particle moving in a circular path is doubled. Then, the centripetal acceleration of the particle is

  1. A 4 times the initial centripteal acceleration
  2. B halved
  3. C doubled
  4. D unchanged
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 4 times the initial centripteal acceleration

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Angular speed, \(\omega=2 \omega\) \(\begin{aligned} & \frac{a_1}{a_2}=\frac{R \omega_1^2}{R \omega_2^2} \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{a_1}{a_2}=\frac{R \omega^2}{R(2 \omega)^2} \end{aligned}\)…
