$A$ particle moves towards east with a velocity of $5\ m/s$. After $10\ s$,its direction changes towards north with the same velocity. The average acceleration of the particle is:

  • A
    Zero
  • B
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\ m/s^2$ North-West
  • C
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\ m/s^2$ North-East
  • D
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\ m/s^2$ South-West

Three point particles $P, Q, R$ move in a circle of radius $r$ with different but constant speeds. They start moving at $t = 0$ from their initial positions as shown in the figure. The angular velocities (in $\text{rad/s}$) of $P, Q$ and $R$ are $5\pi, 2\pi$ and $3\pi$ respectively,in the same sense. The number of times $P$ and $Q$ meet in the time interval $t = 0$ to $t = 1 \text{ s}$ is:
