PhysicsEasysingle choice

A particle is moving in a circular path and its acceleration vector is making an angle of $30 °$ with the velocity vector, then the ratio of centripetal acceleration to its tangential acceleration is

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

For a body undergoing circular motion, let net acceleration makes an angle $θ$ with the tangent, then

$\tan θ = \frac{a_{c}}{a_{t}}$

$∴ \frac{a_{c}}{a_{t}} = \tan 30 ° = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
