Centripetal Acceleration & Force

Two bodies of mass 10 kg and 5 kg are moving in concentric circular orbits of radii ' R ' and ' r ' respectively such that their periods are same. The ratio between their centripetal acceleration is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

Same period $\Rightarrow$ same $\omega$ . Centripetal acceleration $a = \omega^2 r$ .
$a_1 : a_2 = R : r$ (mass does not matter).
So the answer is (a) $R/r$ .
