The angle through which the radius vector rotates in a given time is called
Acceleration
Angular velocity
Angular displacement
None of these
A particle is moving in a circle of radius R with constant speed v. If radius is doubled, then its centripetal force to keep the same speed gets.
twice as great as before
half
one fourth
remains constant
A cosmonaut is orbiting earth in a spacecraft at an altitude h= 630km with a speed of 8kms-1. If the radius of the earth is 6400 km, the acceleration of the cosmonaut is
9.10ms-2
9.80ms-2
10.0ms-2
9.88 ms-2
Centrifugal force is a
centripetal force
pseudo-force
shear force

A stone of mass 'm' tied to a string of length is rotated in a circle with the other end of the string as the centre. The speed of the stone is 'v'. If the string breaks, the stone will
move towards the centre
move away from the centre
move along tangent
stop
A stone tied to one end of spring 80 cm long is whirled in a horizontal circle with a constant speed. If stone makes 25 revolutions in 14s, the magnitude of acceleration of stone is
850cms-2
996cms-2
720cms-2
650cms-2
In which unit is the Planck’s constant expressed?
Joule
Joule-hertz
Joule-second
Newton-second
A 500kg car takes a round turn of radius 50m with a velocity of 36 kmh-1. The centripetal force is
250 N
750 N
1000 N

An imaginary co-ordinate system which is either at rest or in uniform motion and where Newton’s laws are valid is called an
Non-inertial frame of reference
Rotating frame of reference

A coin placed on a rotating turntable just slips, if it is placed at a distance of 8cm from the centre. If angular speed of the turntable is doubled, it will just slip at a distance of
1 cm
2 cm
