Rolling Motion
An annular ring with inner and outer radii and is rolling without slipping with a uniform angular speed. The ratio of the forces experienced by the two particles situated on the inner and outer parts of the ring, is
Show answer and solution
Answer: (c)
- Uniform means the centre moves with constant velocity; in that frame each particle moves in a circle.
- Force on a particle , so for equal masses.
- .
- So the answer is (c).
