A rigid body is rotating with angular velocity ' ω ' about an axis of rotation. Let ‘v’ be the linear velocity of particle which is at perpendicular distance ‘r’ from the axis of rotation. Then the relation ‘v’ = r ω implies that
Options
- Aω does not depend on r
- Bω ∝ 1 r
- Cω ∝ r
- Dω = 0
Correct answer
A. ω does not depend on r
Step-by-step solution
Using the given relation, v = r ω If the perpendicular distance r from the axis of rotation is increased or decreased, then the value of linear velocity v accordingly increases or decreases. Thus, the value of angular velocity ω does not depend on r.
