Question
A particle is going with constant speed along a uniform helical and spiral path separately as shown in figure
Options
A.The velocity of the particle is constant in both cases
B.The magnitude of acceleration of the particle is constant in both cases
C.The magnitude of accleration is constant in (a) and decreasing in (b)
D.The magnitude of accleration is constant in (a) and decreasing in (b)
Solution
ac = 
, radius is constant in case (a) and increase in case (b). So that magnitude of acceleration is constant in case (a) and decrease in case (b).
