Questions  

A particle of mass m is describing a circular path of radius r with uniform speed. If L is the angular momentum of the particle about the axis of the circle, the kinetic energy of the particle is given by

a
L2/mr2
b
L2/2mr2
c
2L2/mr2
d
mr2L

detailed solution

Correct option is B

The angular momentum L is given byL=mvr     or     v=L/mr K.E. =12mv2=12mL2/m2r2=L2/2mr2
