3-2.Motion in Plane
easy

A particle is moving in a circular path. The acceleration and momentum vectors at an instant of time are $\vec{a}=2 \hat{i}+3 \hat{j} m / s ^2$ and $\overrightarrow{ p }=6 \hat{ i } + 4 \hat{ j } kgm /$ $s$. Then the motion of the particle is

Auniform circular motion
Bcircular motion with tangential acceleration
Ccircular motion with tangential retardation
Dwe cannot say anything about $a$ and $p$ only.

Solution

(d)
The nature of motion can be determined only if we know velocity and acceleration as function of time. Here acceleration at an instant is given and not known at other times.
