A particle moving in the xy -plane experiences a velocity dependent force F → = k υ y i ^ + υ x j ^ , where υ x and υ y are the x and y components of its velocity υ → . If a → is the acceleration of the particle, then which of the following statements is true for the particle ?
Options
- Aquantity υ → × a → is constant in time
- BF → arises due to a magnetic field
- Ckinetic energy of particle is constant in time
- Dquantity υ → . a → is constant in time
Correct answer
A. quantity υ → × a → is constant in time
Step-by-step solution
F → = k v → ⇒ F → ‖ v → ⇒ a → ‖ v → ⇒ v → × a → = 0 always
