A body is rotating non-uniformly about a vertical axis fixed in an inertial frame. The resultant force on a particle of the body not on the axis is

To perform non-uniform motion, the acceleration always needs to be shifted from the direction of the rotating axis. Hence, the resultant force is horizontal and skew with the axis.

Figure (10-Q3) shows a small wheel fixed coaxially on a bigger one of double the radius. The system rotates about the common axis. The strings supporting A and B do not slip on the wheels. If x and y be the distances travelled by A and B in the same time interval, then

One end of a uniform rod of mass m and length l is clamped. The rod lies on a smooth horizontal surface and rotates on it about the clamped end at a uniform angular velocity ω. The force exerted by the clamp on the rod has a horizontal component
