    Solve by difficulty

    A mass m is attached to a thin wire and whirled in a vertical circle. The wire is most likely to break when : 

    A particle moves in a circle of radius 5 cm with constant speed and time period $0 / 2 \pi s$. The acceleration of the particle is

    If a body moving in a circular path maintains a constant speed of 10 ms-1, then which of the following correctly describes the relation between acceleration and radius?

    An annular ring with inner and outer radii  R1 and R2 is rolling without slipping with a uniform angular speed. The ratio of the forces experienced by the two particles situated on the inner and outer parts of the ring,F1/Fis,

    Centripetal Force and Centrifugal Force
    1. Centripetal Force-

    • Force acts on the body along the radius and towards the center.

        

    $\begin{aligned} & F=4 m \pi^2 n^2 r \\ & F=\frac{4 m \pi^2 n^2 r}{T^2}\end{aligned}$

    Where,

    F = Centripetal force

    $\omega=$ Angular velocity

    n = frequency

    1. Centrifugal Force  

    • It is a fictitious force that has significance only in the rotating frame of reference.

    • It is an Imaginary force due to the incorporated effects of inertia.
