A particle starts from rest and performing circular motion of constant radius with speed given by $v = \alpha \sqrt x$ where $\alpha$ is a constant and $x$ is the distance covered. The correct graph of magnitude of its tangential acceleration $(a_t)$ and centripetal acceleration $(a_c)$ versus $t$ will be:
The figure shows a velocity-time graph of a particle moving along a straight line The total distance travelled by the particle is ........ $m$
A particle has an initial velocity of ($3\hat i + 4\hat j)\;ms^{-1}$ and an acceleration of $(0.4\hat i + 0.3\hat j)\;ms^{-1}$ Its speed after $10\;s$ is:
A vector has both magnitude and direction. Does it mean that anything that has magnitude and direction is necessarily a vector? The rotation of a body can be specified by the direction of the axis of rotation, and the angle of rotation about the axis. Does that make any rotation a vector?
What can be the angle between velocity and acceleration for the motion on a straight line ? Explain with example.
Starting from the origin at time $t=0,$ with initial velocity $5 \hat{ j }\, ms ^{-1},$ a particle moves in the $x-y$ plane with a constant acceleration of $(10 \hat{ i }+4 \hat{ j })\, ms ^{-2}$. At time $t$, its coordinates are $\left(20\, m , y _{0}\, m \right) .$ The values of $t$ and $y _{0},$ are respectively
