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

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

The initial velocity of a projectile is $\vec{u} = (4\hat{i} + 3\hat{j})\,m/s$. It is moving with uniform acceleration $\vec{a} = (0.4\hat{i} + 0.3\hat{j})\,m/s^2$. The magnitude of its velocity after $10\,s$ is.........$m/s$.

$A$ body of mass $m$ is projected at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal with an initial velocity $v$. If air resistance is negligible,then the total change in momentum when it strikes the ground is:

$A$ particle moves from the point $(2.0\hat i + 4.0\hat j) \, m$ at $t = 0$ with an initial velocity $(5.0\hat i + 4.0\hat j) \, m/s$. It is acted upon by a constant force which produces a constant acceleration $(4.0\hat i + 4.0\hat j) \, m/s^2$. What is the distance of the particle from the origin at time $t = 2 \, s$?

Read each statement below carefully and state,with reasons,if it is true or false:
$(a)$ The net acceleration of a particle in circular motion is always along the radius of the circle towards the centre.
$(b)$ The velocity vector of a particle at a point is always along the tangent to the path of the particle at that point.
$(c)$ The acceleration vector of a particle in uniform circular motion averaged over one cycle is a null vector.
