A small bead moves anticlockwise with constant speed on a horizontal circular wire of radius r.
(a) At the instant when the bead is at the point farthest to the right, sketch a circle, mark the bead’s position, and draw the velocity and acceleration vectors.
(b) Identify which of the two vectors drawn is radial and which is tangential.
