A particle is moving along a circular path with constant speed and centripetal acceleration a . If the speed is doubled, the ratio of its acceleration after and before the change is
Options
- A2:1
- B4:1
- C3:1
- D1:4
Correct answer
B. 4:1
Step-by-step solution
aligned & Centripetal acceleration = v^2 R & a v^2 aligned If the speed is doubled, then the ratio of its acceleration after and before are in 4: 1 ratio.
