Q 1 :    

Let ω1,ω2 and ω3 be the angular speed of the second hand, minute hand and hour hand of a smoothly running analog clock, respectively. If x1,x2 and x3 are their respective angular distances in 1 minute then the factor which remains constant (k) is:             [2024]
 

  • ω1x1=ω2x2=ω3x3=k

     

  • ω1x1=ω2x2=ω3x3=k

     

  • ω1x12=ω2x22=ω3x32=k

     

  • ω12x1=ω12x2=ω12x3=k

     

(1)

Angular velocity of second hand,

ω1=2π1rad/minute

Angular velocity of minute hand, ω2=2π60 rad/minute

Angular velocity of hour hand, ω3=2π12×60 rad/minute

Angular distance of second's hand in one minute

x1=360°/minute

x2=360°60=6°/minute

x3=360°60×12=0.5°/minute

By above values, ω1x1=ω2x2=ω3x3=2π360°=k

where, k is a constant.



Q 2 :    

The angular acceleration of a body, moving along the circumference of a circle, is              [2023]

  • along the tangent to its position

     

  • along the axis of rotation

     

  • along the radius, away from centre

     

  • along the radius towards the centre.

     

(2)

The angular acceleration of a body moving along the circumference of a circle is directed along the axis of rotation.
