    $\frac{\alpha r^2}{v^2}$
  • B
    $\frac{\alpha^2 r}{v^2}$
  • C
    $\frac{\alpha^2 r^2}{v}$
  • D

$A$ disc is rotating with constant angular velocity $\omega$ about an axis passing through centre $C$ and perpendicular to the plane of the disc. An insect is moving over the disc along the radial direction with constant velocity $v$ with respect to the disc. The acceleration of the insect at the instant when its distance from the centre is $r$ will be :-

$A$ particle moves in a circular path with decreasing speed. Determine the correct statement.

$A$ 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:
