Two cars $A$ and $B$ are going around concentric circular paths of radii $R_A$ and $R_B$. If the two cars complete the circular paths in the same time, then the ratio of angular speed of $A$ and $B$ is
  1. $1: 1$
  2. $R_A: R_B$
  3. $R_B: R_A$
  4. $1: 2$

Solution

Angular speed of a body moving on circular path is given as $ \omega=\frac{2 \pi}{T} $ where, $T$ is the time-period. $\therefore \quad \frac{\omega_A}{\omega_B}=\frac{T_B}{T_A}$ Given, $\quad T_A=T_B$ $\therefore \quad \frac{\omega_A}{\omega_B}=\frac{T_A}{T_A} \Rightarrow \frac{\omega_A}{\omega_B}=\frac{1}{1}$ $\therefore \quad \omega_A: \omega_B=1: 1$
