EXERCISES , Questions 1 to 10

1. Find the acceleration of the moon with respect to the earth from the following data: Distance between the earth and the moon = 3.85x10⁵ km and the time taken by the moon to complete one revolution around the earth =27.3 days.

ANSWER :: T= Time period = 27.3 days

=27.3 x 24 x 60 x 60 s =2358720 s

ω = 2π /T =2π/2358720 rad/s

R = 3.85x10⁵ km = 3.85x10⁸ m

In uniform circular motion we have only radial acceleration, here
Acceleration = (ω)²R = (2π/2358720)²x 3.85x10⁸ m/s²

=4x3.14x3.14x 3.85x10⁸ / 2358720x2358720 m/s²

=0.002729 m/s² = 2.73x10^-3 m/s²

2. Find the acceleration of a particle placed on the surface of the earth at the equator due to earth's rotation. The diameter of the earth = 12800 km and it takes 24 hours for the earth to complete one revolution about its axis.

ANSWER :: T= Time period = 24 hrs =24x3600 s

ω = 2π /T =2π/(24x3600) rad/s

Diameter of earth =12800 km → Radius R=12800/2 =6400 km =64x10⁵ m

Radial acceleration = (ω)²R = 4π²x64x10⁵/(24x3600)² m/s² =0.0338 m/s²

3. A particle moves in a circle of radius 1.0 cm at a speed given by v=2.0t where v is in cm/s and and t in seconds.

(a) Find the radial acceleration of the particle at t=1 s. (b) Find the tangential acceleration at t=1 s (c) Find the magnitude of the acceleration at t = 1 s.

ANSWER :: (a) At t=1 s, v=2.0 cm/s.

So radial acceleration a_r = v²/r = 4/1 = 4.0 cm/s²

(b) Tangential acceleration a_t = dv/dt =d(2.0t)/dt =2.0 cm/s²

(c) Magnitude of Acceleration = √(a_r²+a_t² ) =√(4²+2²) =√20 cm/s²

4. A scooter weighing 150 kg together with its rider moving at 36 km/hr is to take a turn of radius 30 m. What horizontal force on the scooter is needed to make the turn possible?

ANSWER :: Mass, m=150 kg ,

Speed, v=36 km/hr =36000 m/3600 s =10 m/s

Radius, r = 30 m

Force needed to make the turn possible = mv²/r

=150x10x10/30 = 500 N

5. If the horizontal force needed for the turn in the previous problem is to be supplied by the normal force by the road, what should be the proper angle of banking?

ANSWER:: If the horizontal force needed for the turn is to be supplied fully by the normal force (i.e. no contribution from frictional force) then,

N.sinθ = mv²/r, (N= Normal force,θ = angle of banking) →N.sinθ=500 ............. (i)

And, N.cosθ=mg, →N.cosθ=150x10=1500 ....... (ii), taking g=10 m/s²

See the picture below,

Diagram for the problem no 5

Dividing (i) by (ii) we get,

tanθ=500/1500=1/3

So θ=tan-1(1/3)

6. A park has a radius of 10 m. If a vehicle goes round it at an average speed of 18 km/hr, what should be the proper angle of banking?

ANSWER :: As in above problem

N.sinθ=mv²/r ----- (i)

N.cosθ=mg ------(ii)

Dividing (i) by (ii)

tanθ=v²/gr

In this problem r=10 m, v=18 km/hr =18000/3600=5 m/s, take g=10 m/s²

So, tanθ=25/10x10 =25/100 =1/4 → θ=tan-1(1/4)

7. If the road of the previous problem is horizontal (No Banking), what should be the minimum friction coefficient so that a scooter going at 18 km /hr does not skid?

ANSWER:: In such case minimum frictional force = Centripetal force

→ µN=mv²/r

→ µ.mg=mv²/r (∵ N=mg)

→ µ =v²/gr =5²/10x10 =25/100 =1/4 =0.25

8. A circular road of radius 50 m has the angle of banking equal to 30°. At what speed should a vehicle go on this road so that the friction is not used?

ANSWER :: As in the case of problem 6 where no frictional force is used to turn,

tanθ =v²/gr → v²=gr.tanθ

here, r=50 m, θ=30° & take g=10 m/s²

it gives v²=10x50xtan30° =500x1/√3 =500/1.732 =288.68≈269

v=17 m/s²

So at 17 m/s² a vehicle would not require friction to turn on this road.

9. In the Bohr model of hydrogen atom, the electron is treated as a particle going in a circle with the center at the proton. The proton itself is assumed to be fixed in an inertial frame. The centripetal force is provided by the Coulomb attraction. In the ground state, the electron goes around the proton in a circle of radius 5.3x10-11 m. Find the speed of the electron in the ground state. Mass of the electron = 9.1x10-31 kg and charge of the electron = 1.6x10-19 C.

ANSWER :: Here r=5.3x10-11 m

m=9.1x10-31 kg

Charge on electron or proton, q=1.6x10-19 C v=speed of electron =?

Force of coloumb attraction on the electron =kq²/r² (constant, k=9x109 m²/C² )

This coloumb attraction force is the centripetal force =mv²/r giving the electron required turn on the circular path, thus

mv²/r=kq²/r²

→v²=kq²/mr = 9x109 x(1.6x10-19)²/ 9.1x10-31 x5.3x10-11

=0.478 x1013

=4.78 x1012

→v=2.186x106 m/s

≈2.2x106 m/s

10. A stone is fastened to one end of a string and is whirled in a vertical circle of radius R. Find the minimum speed of the stone can have at the highest point of the circle.

ANSWER:: At the highest point of the circle minimum speed should be such that its weight is able to turn it on the given circle of radius R.

i.e. mg=mv²/R →g=v²/R →v²=gR →v=√(gR)
