Manipal MET2020PhysicsMotion in Two Dimensions
An object is moving in a circle at constant speed v . The magnitude of the rate of change of momentum of the object is
Options
- Azero
- Bproportional to v^2
- Cproportional to v^3
- Dproportional to V
Correct answer
B. proportional to v^2
Step-by-step solution
Rate of change of momentum of the object, p t =F_ ext = m v^2 r p t v^2 (where, m and r are constant)
