Tangential acceleration of a particle moving in a circle


Asked by admin @ in Physics viewed by 286 People


tangential acceleration of the particle moving on a circular path of radius 1 metre varies with time as shown the time after which total acceleration makes an angle of 45 degree with the velocity of the particle is (particle starts from rest)

Answer:

(\frac{4\sqrt{3}}{3})^{1/3}

Explanation:

The equation of the line shown will be

a_t=\sqrt{3}t

Radius of the circular path = 1 m

We know that acceleration is rate of change of velocity

Therefore,

\frac{dv}{dt}=\sqrt{3}t

or, dv=\sqrt{3}tdt

or, \int_0^v dv=\sqrt{3}\int_0^ttdt

or. v=\frac{\sqrt{3}t^2}{2}

Therefore,

The radial acceleration

a_r=\frac{v^2}{r}

\implies a_r=\frac{(\sqrt{3}t^2/2)^2}{1}

\implies a_r=\frac{3t^4}{4}

The tangential acceleration and the radial acceleration will always be perpendicular

Therefore at any instant if we take the direction of tangential acceleration as x-axis and radial acceleration as y-axis then total acceleration can be written as

\vec a=a_t\hat i+a_r\hat j

\vec a=\sqrt{3}t\hat i+\frac{3t^4}{4}\hat j

The velocity will always be in the direction of the tangential acceleration

The angle made by the total acceleration with the direction of velocity is given by

\theta=\tan^{-1}\frac{a_n}{a_r}

According to the question this angle is 45°

tan45° = 1

Therefore,

1=\frac{a_n}{a_r}

or, a_r=a_t

or, \frac{3t^4}{4}=\sqrt{3}t

\implies t^3=\frac{4\sqrt{3}}{3}

\implies t=(\frac{4\sqrt{3}}{3})^{1/3}

Hope this helps.
