Two particles A and B are located at distances rA and rB respectively from the centre of a rotating disc such that rA > rB. In this case, if angular velocity ω of rotation is constant then (A) both A and B do not have any acceleration. (B) both A and B have same acceleration. (C) A has greater acceleration than B. (D) B has greater acceleration than A.

Answer»

Answer is (C) A has greater acceleration than B.

As ω is constant, acceleration is due to the change in direction of velocity = ω2

As rA > rB ⇒ aA > aB
