Question

A particle moves in a circle of radius $$5\,cm$$  with constant speed and time period $$0.2\pi s.$$  The acceleration of the particle is

A. $$25\,m/{s^2}$$
B. $$36\,m/{s^2}$$
C. $$5\,m/{s^2}$$  
D. $$15\,m/{s^2}$$
Answer :   $$5\,m/{s^2}$$
Solution :
Given, $$r = 5\,cm = 5 \times {10^{ - 2}}m$$
$$T = 0.2\,\pi s$$
We know that acceleration is given by
$$a = r{\omega ^2} = \frac{{4{\pi ^2}}}{{{T^2}}}r = \frac{{4 \times {\pi ^2} \times 5 \times {{10}^{ - 2}}}}{{{{\left( {0.2\,\pi } \right)}^2}}} = 5\,m/{s^2}$$
