What is vertical circular motion? Show that motion of an object revolving in vertical circle is non uniform circular motion.

       A body revolves in a vertical circle such that its motion at different points is different then the motion of the body is said to be vertical circular motion.         Consider an object of […]

What is banking of road? Explain the necessity of banking of the road.

Banking of road: The process of raising outer edge of a road over its inner edge through certain angle is known as banking of road. Necessity of banking of the road: i. When a vehicle moves along horizontal curved road, […]

Explain applications of centrifugal force in our daily life.

There are Seven application of centrifugal force. Applications: i. When a car in motion takes a sudden turn towards left, passengers in car experience an outward push to the right. This is due to centrifugal force acting on the passengers. ii. […]

State four examples where centripetal force is experienced by the body .

Examples where centripetal force is experienced by the body. I) A stone tied at the end of a string is revolved in a horizontal circle, the tension in the string provides the necessary centripetal force. It is given by equation […]

What is the difference between uniform circular motion and non uniform circular motion? Give examples.

Sr. No U.C.M Non-U.C.M 1. Circular motion with constant angular speed is known as uniform circular motion Circular motion with variable angular speed is called as non-uniform circular motion 2. For U.C.M, α = 0 For non-U.C.M, α≠ 0 3. In U.C.M, work […]

U.C.M is an accelerated motion. Justify this statement.

Definition:                     In U.C.M, the magnitude of linear velocity (speed) remains constant but the direction of linear velocity goes on changing i.e., linear velocity changes.             The […]
