A particle of mass $m$ describes a circle of radius $r$. The centripetal acceleration of the particle is $4/r^2$. What will be the momentum of the particle?

A$2\, m/r$
B$2m/ \sqrt r$
C$4m/ \sqrt r$
D$4 \,m/r$

Solution

$a_{c}=\frac{4}{r^{2}}$
$\frac{v^{2}}{r}=\frac{4}{r^{2}}$
$\mathrm{v}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{\mathrm{r}}}$
so $P=\mathrm{mv}$
$=\frac{2 m}{\sqrt{r}}$
