NEET Physics Uniform Circular Motion Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Centripetal acceleration (i) Always directed towards the center of the circle (b) Velocity in uniform circular motion (ii) Changes in direction but not in magnitude (c) Uniform speed in circular motion (iii) Remains constant throughout the motion (d) Direction of velocity vector (iv) Always tangential to the path
Choose the correct matching:
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
a-i, b-iii, c-iv, d-ii
a-iv, b-ii, c-i, d-iii
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Centripetal acceleration is defined as always directed towards the center of the circle (i) while the velocity changes direction but maintains constant speed (ii). The uniform speed remains constant throughout the motion (iii), and the direction of the velocity vector is always tangential to the path (iv). This information is derived from the descriptions of uniform circular motion.
