Question

A stone tied to the end of a string 80 cm long is whirled in a horizontal circle with a constant speed. If the stone makes 14 revolutions in 25 s, what is the magnitude and direction of acceleration of the stone ?

Solution
Verified by Toppr

Frequency f=1425Hz
Angular velocity ω=2πf=2×14π25rad/s=3.52rad/s
Acceleration is a=ω2r=3.522×0.8=9.9m/s2
The direction is along the radius at every point towards the centre.
