Two cars are going around two concentric circular paths at the same angular speed. Does the inner or the outer car have the larger linear speed?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The linear speed is given by `v=romega` Since the angular speed `omega` is same for both the cars, the linear speed v is more for the outer car for having higher radius r.
