Practice question
Question
A particle in circular motion has a centripetal acceleration of 25m/s2 and a speed of 10m/s. What is the radius of the path?
Explanation
Centripetal acceleration a_c=v²/r=4π²r/T²=4π²rf² per NCERT circular motion. Substituting r and frequency/period gives a_c value matching 4 m. Other options use incorrect r or f, so D is correct.
