A particle \((1),\) dropped from rest from the topmost point \((A)\) of a vertical circle, reaches the bottom \((B)\) in the same time as when a second particle \((2)\) moving with constant speed moves along the circumference from \(A\) to \(B.\) The ratio of the accelerations of the particles \((a_1/a_2)\) equals:
                            

 
1. \(1\) 2. \(\dfrac{2}{\pi} \)
3. \(\dfrac{4}{\pi^2} \) 4. \(\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{\pi}} \)

Two particles \(A,B\) move along the periphery of a circle of radius \(R,\) with the same uniform speed \(u.\) Particle \(A\) follows \(B,\) a quarter of the circumference behind it. The acceleration of \(A\) relative to \(B\) is:
1. zero 2. \(\dfrac{2u^2}{R}\)
3. \(\dfrac{u^2}{\sqrt2R}\) 4. \(\dfrac{\sqrt2u^2}{R}\)

A tangential force, constant in magnitude, acts on a particle moving in a circular path. This kind of force is:
1. conservative
2. non-conservative
3. neither conservative nor non-conservative
4. either conservative or non-conservative depending on whether the force is acting forward or backward

A particle is released from the top of a smooth hemisphere of radius \(R,\) and it slides down along its surface. After it slides down a height \(\frac R5,\) its acceleration will be \(a,\) where: 
   
1. \(a<\dfrac{2 g}{5}\)
2. \(\dfrac{2 g}{5}< a< \dfrac{3 g}{5}\)
3. \(\dfrac {3g} {5} <a<g\)
4. \(a = g \)
