A disc has angular velocity omega about o . The ratio of angular velocity of point p
Answers
Answer:
a disc has an angular velocity w about O (centre). the ratio of angular velocity of a point P w.r.t A fixed to the ground and angular velocity of point P w.r.t A fixed to the disc is ? ( P and A are one the circumference of the disc and distance A and P is root 3 R where R is the radius.
The complete question is:
A disc has an angular velocity w about O (center). the ratio of angular velocity of a point P w.r.t A fixed to the ground and angular velocity of point P w.r.t A fixed to the disc is ? ( P and A are one the circumference of the disc) and the ratio of angular velocity of a point P w.r.t A fixed to the ground and angular velocity of point P w.r.t A fixed to the disc isdistance A and P is root 3 R where R is the radius).
Given:
Angular velocity about center o = w
Distance AP= √3R
To find:
The ratio of angular velocity of a point P w.r.t A fixed to the ground and angular velocity of point P w.r.t A fixed to the disc.
Solution:
Let B be the point on the circle and M be a point that is diametrically opposite to B,
As it is given that AP = √3R
hence, AOM makes an angle of 90° with P
Let α be the angle PAB, then:
cosα = PA/PB = √3R/2R
α = 60°
Let v be the velocity of P with respect to O, then the angular velocity of P with respect to A on the ground is
= vcos30° √3R
And the angular velocity of with respect to moving A on the disc is:
v cos30° √3R / 2v cos30°√3R
= 1/2
The ratio of angular velocity of a point P w.r.t A fixed to the ground and angular velocity of point P w.r.t A fixed to the disc is 1/2.
