If speed of a body and radius of it's circular path are double, centripetal force will become

A

double

B

4 times

C

unchanged

D

half

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Centripetal force, `F=(mv^(2))/(r)`,
`F'=(m(2v)^(2))/((2r))=(2mv^(2))/(r)=2F`
Centripetal force will be doubled.

The expression from centripetal force depends upon mass of body, speed of the body and the radius of circular path. Find the expression for centripetal force.

If the speed and radius both are trippled for a body moving on a circular path, then the new centripetal force will be:

If the kinetic energy of a particle moving with a constant speed on a circular path of radius 4 m is 100 j .Then the centripetal force will be

Statement I: A body moving in a circular path is acted upon by the centripetal force. Statement II: Centripetal force acting on the body is doing work to keep it rotating in the circular path.

A body is moving along a circular path. How much work is done by the centripetal force?
