The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the position vector of the particle given by: \[ \vec{r} = \cos(\omega t) \hat{i} + \sin(\omega t) \hat{j} \] ### Step 1: Find the velocity vector \(\vec{v}\) The velocity vector \(\vec{v}\) can be found by differentiating the position vector \(\vec{r}\) with respect to time \(t\): \[ \vec{v} = \frac{d\vec{r}}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(\cos(\omega t) \hat{i} + \sin(\omega t) \hat{j}) \] Using the chain rule, we differentiate each component: \[ \vec{v} = -\sin(\omega t) \cdot \omega \hat{i} + \cos(\omega t) \cdot \omega \hat{j} \] Thus, we can express the velocity vector as: \[ \vec{v} = -\omega \sin(\omega t) \hat{i} + \omega \cos(\omega t) \hat{j} \] ### Step 2: Find the acceleration vector \(\vec{a}\) The acceleration vector \(\vec{a}\) can be found by differentiating the velocity vector \(\vec{v}\) with respect to time \(t\): \[ \vec{a} = \frac{d\vec{v}}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(-\omega \sin(\omega t) \hat{i} + \omega \cos(\omega t) \hat{j}) \] Again, applying the chain rule: \[ \vec{a} = -\omega \cos(\omega t) \cdot \omega \hat{i} - \sin(\omega t) \cdot \omega \hat{j} \] This simplifies to: \[ \vec{a} = -\omega^2 \cos(\omega t) \hat{i} - \omega^2 \sin(\omega t) \hat{j} \] We can factor out \(-\omega^2\): \[ \vec{a} = -\omega^2 (\cos(\omega t) \hat{i} + \sin(\omega t) \hat{j}) = -\omega^2 \vec{r} \] ### Step 3: Analyze the relationships between \(\vec{r}\), \(\vec{v}\), and \(\vec{a}\) 1. **Check if \(\vec{v}\) is perpendicular to \(\vec{r}\)**: To check if \(\vec{v}\) is perpendicular to \(\vec{r}\), we calculate the dot product \(\vec{v} \cdot \vec{r}\): \[ \vec{v} \cdot \vec{r} = (-\omega \sin(\omega t) \hat{i} + \omega \cos(\omega t) \hat{j}) \cdot (\cos(\omega t) \hat{i} + \sin(\omega t) \hat{j}) \] Expanding this gives: \[ = -\omega \sin(\omega t) \cos(\omega t) + \omega \cos(\omega t) \sin(\omega t) = 0 \] Since the dot product is zero, \(\vec{v}\) is indeed perpendicular to \(\vec{r}\). 2. **Check if \(\vec{a}\) is antiparallel to \(\vec{r}\)**: We have found that: \[ \vec{a} = -\omega^2 \vec{r} \] This indicates that \(\vec{a}\) is in the opposite direction to \(\vec{r}\), confirming that \(\vec{a}\) is antiparallel to \(\vec{r}\). ### Conclusion From our analysis, we conclude that: - \(\vec{v}\) is perpendicular to \(\vec{r}\). - \(\vec{a}\) is antiparallel to \(\vec{r}\). Thus, the correct statement about \(\vec{r}\), \(\vec{v}\), and \(\vec{a}\) is that \(\vec{v}\) is perpendicular to \(\vec{r}\) and \(\vec{a}\) is directed towards the origin (antiparallel to \(\vec{r}\)).

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the position vector of the particle given by: \[ \vec{r} = \cos(\omega t) \hat{i} + \sin(\omega t) \hat{j} \] ### Step 1: Find the velocity vector \(\vec{v}\) ...
