Physics-Uniform Circular Motion
NEET Physics Uniform Circular Motion Match the Following Question
Type: Match the Following-match the column-Easy-Class 11
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Centripetal acceleration | (i) Always directed towards the center |
| (b) Velocity in circular motion | (ii) Perpendicular to radius vector |
| (c) Magnitude of centripetal acceleration | (iii) v^2 / R |
| (d) Direction of acceleration | (iv) Changes continuously |
A
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
B
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
C
a-iv, b-iii, c-i, d-ii
D
a-iii, b-iv, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Centripetal acceleration is defined as always directed towards the center (i), the velocity is tangent to the circular path (ii), its magnitude is given by v^2 / R (iii), and the direction of acceleration continuously changes as it points towards the center (iv). These pairs are all accurately represented in the NCERT context.
