Consider a disc rotating in the horizontal plane with a constant angular speed about its centre . The disc has a shaded region on one side of the diameter and an unshaded region on the other side as shown in the figure. When the disc is in the orientation as shown, two pebbles and are simultaneously projected at an angle towards . The velocity of projection is in the - plane and is same for both pebbles with respect to the disc. Assume that (i) they land back on the disc before the disc has completed rotation, (ii) their range is less than half the disc radius, and (iii) remains constant throughout. Then

Options
- A lands in the shaded region and in the unshaded region.
- B lands in the unshaded region and in the shaded region.
- CBoth and land in the unshaded region.
- DBoth and land in the shaded region.
Correct answer
C. Both and land in the unshaded region.
Step-by-step solution
For of rotation of disc,
To reach the unshaded part, particle needs to travel horizontal range
But its range is less than so it will land on shaded part. is near the origin, its velocity will be nearly along QR so it will land in unshaded part.
