JEE AdvancedPhysicsRotational MotionMultiple correct+4 / −1
The potential energy of a particle of mass mmm at a distance rrr from a fixed point OOO is given by V(r)=kr2/2,V\left( r \right) = k{r^2}/2,V(r)=kr2/2, where kkk is a positive constant of appropriate dimensions. This particle is moving in a circular orbit of radius RRR about the point OOO. If vvv is the speed of the particle and LLL is the magnitude of its angular momentum about O,O,O, which of the following statements is (are) true?
  1. A
    v=k2mRv = \sqrt {{k \over {2m}}} Rv=2mk​​R
  2. B
    v=kmRv = \sqrt {{k \over m}} Rv=mk​​R
  3. C
    L=mkR2L = \sqrt {mk} {R^2}L=mk​R2
  4. D
    L=mk2R2L = \sqrt {{{mk} \over 2}} {R^2}L=2mk​​R2

Correct answer: B, C

  1. Given potential energy

    V(r)=kr22V(r)=\frac{kr^2}{2}V(r)=2kr2​

    The force is obtained from:

    F⃗=−dVdrr^\vec F=-\frac{dV}{dr}\hat rF=−drdV​r^

    So,

    dVdr=kr\frac{dV}{dr}=krdrdV​=kr

    hence,

    F⃗=−krr^\vec F=-kr\hat rF=−krr^

    This is an attractive central force of magnitude

    F=krF=krF=kr

  2. Condition for circular motion

    For a circular orbit of radius RRR, the required centripetal force is

    mv2R\frac{mv^2}{R}Rmv2​

    This must be provided by the central force at r=Rr=Rr=R:

    kR=mv2RkR=\frac{mv^2}{R}kR=Rmv2​

    Therefore,

    mv2=kR2mv^2=kR^2mv2=kR2

    v2=kmR2v^2=\frac{k}{m}R^2v2=mk​R2

    v=km Rv=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\,Rv=mk​​R

    So option B is correct and option A is incorrect.

  3. Angular momentum

    For circular motion, velocity is perpendicular to radius vector, so

    L=mvRL=mvRL=mvR

    Substitute v=kmRv=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}Rv=mk​​R:

    L=mR(kmR)L=mR\left(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}R\right)L=mR(mk​​R)

    L=mk R2L=\sqrt{mk}\,R^2L=mk​R2

    So option C is correct and option D is incorrect.

  4. Final evaluation of options

    • A: False
    • B: True
    • C: True
    • D: False

Therefore, the correct options are:

B, C\boxed{\text{B, C}}B, C​

  1. Comparison with stored answer

    Stored correct answer: B, C

    Derived answer: B, C

    They match exactly.
