A force vec(F)=(-y hat(i)+ x hat(j))N acts on a particle as it moves in an anticlockwise circularmotion in x-y plane. The centre of the circle is at the origin. If the work done by the force is 32 pi J in one complete revolution then asSigmaingx, y to be in meters, find the radius of the path.

Answer»

Solution :The force is perpendicular to the radius vector `VEC(R)= x HAT(i)+ y hat(J) rArr` Force is TANGENTIAL
Torque `| tau|=R|vec(R)|=R sqrt(x^(2)+y^(2))=R^(2)`
`W= int_(0)^(theta) tau d theta = R^(2)2 pi`
`R^(2)2 pi = 32 pi rArr R=4 m`
