STATEMENT-1: When a particle moves in a circle with a uniform speed, it velocity and acceleration both changes.
STATEMENT-2: The centripetal acceleration in circular motion is depdendent on angular velocity of the body.

A

Statement -1 is True, Statement-2 is Ture, Statement-2 is a correct explanantion for Statement-1.

B

Statement-1 is Ture, Statement-2 is Ture, Statement-2 is Not a correct explanantion for Statement-1.

C

Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False.

D

Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
In uniform circular motion, the magnitude of velocity and acceleration remains same, but due to change in direction of motion, the direction of velcotiy and acceleration changes. Also the centripetal acceleration is given by `a = omega^(2) r`.
