Certain neutron stars are believed to be rotating at about 1 rev/s. If such a star has a radius of 20 km, the acceleration of an object on the equator of the star will be:
1. | \(20 \times 10^8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2 \) | 2. | \(8 \times 10^5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2 \) |
3. | \(120 \times 10^5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2 \) | 4. | \(4 \times 10^8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\) |
In 1.0 s, a particle goes from point A to point B, moving in a semicircle of radius 1.0 m (see figure). The magnitude of the average velocity is:
1. | 3.14 m/s | 2. | 2.0 m/s |
3. | 1.0 m/s | 4. | Zero |

A particle is moving eastwards with velocity of 5 m/s. In 10 seconds the velocity changes to 5 m/s northwards. The average acceleration in this time is?
1. | Zero |
2. | \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2 \) toward north-west |
3. | \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2 \) toward north-east |

A vector is turned without a change in its length through a small angle The value of and are, respectively:

A particle is moving such that its position coordinates \((x,y)\) are \((2\) m, \(3\) m) at time \(t=0,\) \((6\) m, \(7\) m) at time \(t=2\) s and \((13\) m, \(14\) m) at time \(t=5\) s. Average velocity vector \((v_{avg})\) from \(t=0\) to \(t=5\) s is:
1. | \(\frac{1}{5}\left ( 13\hat{i}+14\hat{j} \right )\) | 2. | \(\frac{7}{3}\left ( \hat{i}+\hat{j} \right )\) |
3. | \(2\left ( \hat{i}+\hat{j} \right )\) | 4. | \(\frac{11}{5}\left ( \hat{i}+\hat{j} \right )\) |
The coordinates of a moving particle at a time t, are given by, x=5 sin 10t, y=5 cos 10t. It can be deduced that the speed of the particle will be:
