Problem

A particle is moving in a circle of radius rr under the action of a force F=αr2F = \alpha r^2 which is directed towards centre of the circle. Total mechanical energy (kinetic energy + potential energy) of the particle is (take potential energy = 0 for r=0r = 0 ) : a. 12αr3\frac{1}{2}\alpha r^3 b. 56αr3\frac{5}{6}\alpha r^3 c. 43αr3\frac{4}{3}\alpha r^3 d. αr3\alpha r^3
