A particle moves so that its position vector is given by r =cosωti+sinωtj. where ω is a constant.
a)Show that the velocity v of the particle is perpendicular to r, and the velocity acceleration a is directed towards the origin and has magnitude proportional to the distance from the origin.
Now using (1),(2) and (3) we get, v.r=0 Its indicate that velocity is perpendicular to r and a.r=0 So acceleration is neither parallel nor perpendicular to r
The equation (3) indicates the acceleration is directed toward the origin.
(b) Ans:-
r=cosωx^+sinωy^
∣r∣=(Cosω)2+(Sinω)2=1
As we know that the angle between itself will be 0°
