The linear speed of a particle moving in a circle of radius `R` varies with time as `v = v_0 - kt`, where `k` is a positive constant. At what time the magnitudes of angular velocity and angular acceleration will be equal ? |
Answer» We have `v = v_0 - kt` (given). Then, the tangential acceleration of the particle is `a_t = (d v)/(d t) = k` The angular acceleration of the particle is `omega = (v)/( R) = (v_0 - kt)/( R)` If `prop = omega`, we have `(k)/( R) = (v_0 - kt)/( R)` Then, `t = (v_0 - k)/(k)`. |
