Circular Motion
Distance and Displacement
1. b) displacement


Displacement may be zero because
final position of the particle may
coincide with its initial position.
2. c) It is always positive

Displacement may be positive,
negative or zero as it is a vector
quantity.
3. d)



This is because distance travelled can
never be negative.
4. b)



Relative speed = 0.
When velocity of A = velocity of B
displacement-time graphs of A and
B must have same slope (but other than
zero).
5. b) 2r

9. b) moves with velocity v tangential to
orbit


The gravitational force is the centripetal
force, which keeps the satellite bound to
Earth. As it disappears, satellite no longer
continues C.M.

Dimensionless
12. a) vector
in U.C.M. is vector.
13. c) 2


14. c) perpendicular to plane of circle



15. c) tangent outward
16. c) tangent outward
17. a) same as that of angular displacement
Direction of angular displacement and
angular velocity vector is same.
18. d) changes in direction
19. c) i and iii are correct
20. a)
0
0


Angular velocity is perpendicular to
plane and passing through centre. It is
outward when motion is anticlockwise
and inward when motion is clockwise
so it will change only when direction
of motion changes. So it is
0
0 .
21. b)

Position vector and centripetal
acceleration are antiparallel to each other.
Therefore angle between them is .
22. c) angular acceleration
23. c) the angular acceleration is zero
24. d) passing through origin with a slope


is constant so V r graph between
v and r is a straight line passing
through the origin with slope .
25. b) parallel to x (distance) axis


As is constant the straight line
graph is parallel to x-axis.
26. c) zero
Tangential acceleration is zero in
U.C.M. as in U.C.M. there is only
radial acceleration.
27. b)
2
0 / m s


The tangential acceleration is zero in
U.C.M.
28. d) both velocity and acceleration change
In U.C.M. direction of velocity and
acceleration change from point to
point.
29. c) periodic and non simple harmonic
In U.C.M. motion of particle is
periodic i.e. repeats in equal interval of
time. It is non simple harmonic as it is
along the circle and not in a straight
line.
30. c) kinetic energy


K.E. depends upon speed and not on
velocity i.e. independent of direction
of motion.
31. c) will move linearly along the tangent to
the circle


Since nucleus is removed, centripetal
force (i.e. force of attraction)
disappears. Hence, due to tangential
velocity of electron, it moves linearly
along tangent.
32. b) horizontally to the South


The particle leaves the ground
horizontally to the south.
33. b) revolution of Earth round the Sun
Revolution of Earth round the Sun.
34. c) angular momentum is constant and
linear momentum is changing


Velocity is changing continuously,
linear momentum is changing
( )
. P mV = and . , L I = is constant
therefore, angular momentum is
constant.
35. a) is zero at the poles and maximum at
equator

Circular Motion
3


Earth is rotating about an axis passing
through its poles. So particles which
are on poles remain their so distance
will be zero so speed is zero but at
equator distance covered is maximum
so speed is maximum.

74. c) zero

Work done by the force in uniform
circular motion is zero.
Work done = . cos F s Fs =



Circular Motion
6
Centripetal force is always
perpendicular to velocity hence to
displacement. So angle between F and
s is
0
90 and cos 90 = 0. Hence work
done = 0.
75. b) centrifugal force balances the force of
gravity
In this case magnitudes of centrifugal
force and gravitational force are equal
and opposite in direction. Hence
centrifugal force balance the force of
gravity.
76. b) due to the lack of proper centripetal
force

For circular motion, centripetal force is
necessary. If a car is thrown out of
road, it is due to lack of centripetal
force.
77. c) friction between the coin and the
record


The centripetal force is provided by
friction between the coin and the
record.
78. d) the centripetal force does not suffer
any change in magnitude

speed is unchanged so magnitude of
centripetal force remains same but
direction is changed as direction of
velocity is reversed.
79. c) generate required centripetal force
turning means motion on a curved
path, which requires centripetal force.
