For a particle in uniform circular motion, the acceleration \overrightarrow{a} at any point P(R, \theta) on the circular path of radius {\R} is (when \theta is measured from the positive x-axis and v is uniform speed) : [25-Jun-2022-Shift-2]

Correct Answer is : −v2Rcosθ∧i−v2Rsinθ∧j

-\frac{v^2}{R} \sin \theta \hat{i}+\frac{v^2}{R} \cos \theta \hat{j}

-\frac{v^2}{R} \cos \theta \hat{i}+\frac{v^2}{R} \sin \theta \hat{j}

-\frac{v^2}{R} \cos \theta \hat{i}-\frac{v^2}{R} \sin \theta \hat{j}

-\frac{v^2}{R} \hat{i}+\frac{v^2}{R} \hat{j}
