Question
Two racing cars of masses and are moving in circles of radii and respectively. Their speeds are such that each makes a complete circle in the same duration of time . The ratio of the angular speed of the first to the second car is:
In uniform circular motion, the angular speed is defined as the angle covered per unit time. For a complete revolution (angle ), if the time taken is the time period , then the angular speed is given by .
Given that both cars complete the circle in the same duration of time , their time periods are equal (). Therefore, their angular speeds are:
The ratio is . The angular speed is independent of the mass and radius when the time period is fixed.
This question aligns with the NEET PHYSICS syllabus, specifically targeting concepts from MOTION IN A PLANE. Mastering this topic is crucial for scoring well in the upcoming medical entrance examinations. Solving conceptually related problems will help you understand the nuances of these concepts and improve your problem-solving speed.
