A coin moves in a circular path on a rough rotating horizontal disk as shown in the figure which has an angular acceleration α Coin does not slip on disk. Mark the INCORRECT statement : (1) Power delivered by the friction on the coin is positive.(2) Power delivered by centripetal force on the particle is zero. (3) Work done by the contacting frictional force on the system (disc + surface) is negative. (4) Power is delivered to coin by tangential force only.

Work is done only by tangential forces as coin is having only tangential velocity,it doesn't have radical velocity. Work done by friction (component towards tangent) is positive as it is in same direction as of velocity. So A,B,D are correct options. 
C) net friction force on system (disc +coin)=0 so no power is delivered.
