a= v(dv/ds) + dv/dt
As steady flow is taking place, dv/dt=0.
a= v (dv/ds).
now, v= k/r2.
dv/ds= dv/dr= -2k/ r3.
therefore, a varies as 1/r5.

Yes, 1/r5 is correct.

For this
a = V^2/r.
Here, V = 1/r^2 hence,
a = [(1/r^2)^2]/r,
= (1/r^4)/r.
a = 1/r^5.
a = V^2/r.
Here, V = 1/r^2 hence,
a = [(1/r^2)^2]/r,
= (1/r^4)/r.
a = 1/r^5.

Simple V = d/t,
Given V = 1/r^2 and d = r,
Substitute t = r^3,
Now a = V/t = 1/r^5.
Given V = 1/r^2 and d = r,
Substitute t = r^3,
Now a = V/t = 1/r^5.

dr/dt = - constant / r*r.
To find the acceleration, we want to differentiate the velocity with respect to time. That is:
a = d/dt(dr/dt). = - constant * d/dt(1/r*r)
Now, if f is a function of r, then d/dt(f) = df/dr * dr/dt and so;
a = - constant * d/dt(1/r*r) = - constant * ( -2 / r*r*r) * (-constant) / r*r.
a = -2 * velocity^2 / r = - 2 * constant^2 / r*r*r*r*r.
So the acceleration is proportional to 1 / (r*r*r*r*r).

So the acceleration is proportional to 1 / (r*r*r*r*r).

We know the radial acc is=V2/r .(1/(r2)2*r=1/r5.

Acceleration a= v2/r--- eq-01
Given velocity v=1/r2,
putting the value v in eq-. no 01,
therefore,a = v.v/r= ((1/r2).(1/r2))/r =(1/r4)/r = 1/r4 x 1/r = 1/r5.
