    A body is rotating uniformly about a vertical axis fixed in an inertial frame. The resultant force on a particle of the body not on the axis is
    (a) vertical
    (b) horizontal and skew with the axis
    (c) horizontal and intersecting the axis
    (d) none of these.
    digAnsr:   c
    Ans : (c) horizontal and intersecting the axis
    Because resultant force on a particle of the body rotating uniformly is always perpendicular to the rotation axis and pass through it.
