Two stones of masses m and 2m are whirled in horizontal circles, the heavier one in a radius `(r)/(2)` and the lighter one in radius r. The tangential speed of lighter stone when they experience forces. The value of n is

A

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Equal centripetal force
`(mv_(1)^(2))/(r)=((2m)v_(2)^(2))/(r//2)` ltbr `impliesv_(1)^(2)=4v_(2)^(2)`
`impliesv_(1)=2v_(2)`
