The kinetic energy $K$ of a particle moving along a circle of radius $R$ depends on the distance covered $s$ as $K = as^2$,where $a$ is a constant. The force acting on the particle is:

  • A
    $2a\frac{s^2}{R}$
  • B
    $2as\left(1 + \frac{s^2}{R^2}\right)^{1/2}$
  • C
    $2as$
  • D
    $2a\frac{R^2}{s}$

$A$ particle starts from the origin at $t=0$ with a velocity $5 \hat{i} \text{ m/s}$ and moves in the $x-y$ plane under the action of a force which produces a constant acceleration of $(3 \hat{i} + 2 \hat{j}) \text{ m/s}^2$. If the $x$-coordinate of the particle at that instant is $84 \text{ m}$,then the speed of the particle at this time is $\sqrt{\alpha} \text{ m/s}$. The value of $\alpha$ is . . . . . . .
