Consider a wheel rotating around a fixed axis. If the rotation angle $\theta$ varies with time as $\theta=a t^2$, then the total acceleration of a point $A$ on the rim of the wheel is ($v$ being the tangential velocity).

In non-uniform circular motion,the ratio of tangential to radial acceleration is ($r=$ radius,$\alpha=$ angular acceleration,$V=$ linear velocity).

Explain the effects of the radial component and the tangential component of the linear acceleration of a particle in circular motion.

$A$ point object moves along an arc of a circle of radius $R$. Its velocity depends upon the distance covered $s$ as $v=K \sqrt{s}$,where $K$ is a constant. If $\theta$ is the angle between the total acceleration and tangential acceleration,then

The force required to keep a body in uniform circular motion is:
