In a hypothetical ring-shaped satellite rotating in space, artificial gravity can be achieved using centripetal force. If the satellite has a radius of $10 \,m$, then to achieve a centripetal acceleration at a point on the circumference of $10 \,ms^{-2}$, its angular speed is:

  • A
    $1 \,rad \,s^{-1}$
  • B
    $10 \,rad \,s^{-1}$
  • C
    $1 \,revolution \,s^{-1}$
  • D
    $10 \,revolution \,s^{-1}$

$A$ body of mass $2 \,kg$ moves in a horizontal circular path of radius $5 \,m$. At an instant, its speed is $2 \sqrt{5} \,m/s$ and is increasing at the rate of $3 \,m/s^2$. The magnitude of the net force acting on the body at that instant is: (in $\,N$)

$A$ particle is confined to rotate in a circular path with decreasing linear speed. Which of the following is correct?

$A$ particle moves along an arc of a circle of radius $R$. Its velocity depends on the distance covered as $v = a\sqrt{s}$,where $a$ is a constant. Then the angle $\alpha$ between the vector of the total acceleration and the vector of velocity as a function of $s$ will be:

$A$ particle is moving in a circle of radius $50 \ cm$ in such a way that at any instant the normal and tangential components of its acceleration are equal. If its speed at $t=0$ is $4 \ m/s$,the time taken to complete the first revolution will be $\frac{1}{\alpha}[1-e^{-2 \pi}] \ s$,where $\alpha=$ . . . . . . .
