The kinetic energy $k$ of a particle moving along a circle of radius $R$ depends on the distance covered $s$ as $k = as^2$,where $a$ is a constant. The force acting on the particle is

  • A
    $2a\frac{s^2}{R}$
  • B
    $2as\sqrt{1 + \frac{s^2}{R^2}}$
  • C
    $2as$
  • D
    $2a\frac{R^2}{s}$

The velocity and acceleration vectors of a particle undergoing circular motion are $\overrightarrow{v} = 2 \hat{i} \text{ m/s}$ and $\overrightarrow{a} = 2 \hat{i} + 4 \hat{j} \text{ m/s}^2$ respectively at an instant of time. The radius of the circle is $........ \text{ m}$.

In non-uniform circular motion,the ratio of tangential to radial acceleration is ($r$ is the radius of the circle,$v$ is the speed of the particle,$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration).
