Two racing cars of masses \(m_1\) and \(m_2\) are moving in circles of radii \(r_1\) and \(r_2\) respectively. Their speeds are such that each makes a complete circle in the same duration of time \(t\). The ratio of the angular speed of the first to the second car is:
1. | \(m_1:m_2\) | 2. | \(r_1:r_2\) |
3. | \(1:1\) | 4. | \(m_1r_1:m_2r_2\) |
If a particle moves in a circle describing equal angles in equal times, its velocity vector:
1. remains constant.
2. changes in magnitude.
3. changes in direction.
4. changes both in magnitude and direction.
A motorcyclist going round in a circular track at a constant speed has:
1. constant linear velocity.
2. constant acceleration.
3. constant angular velocity.
4. constant force.
A particle P is moving in a circle of radius ‘a’ with a uniform speed v. C is the centre of the circle and AB is a diameter. When passing through B the angular velocity of P about A and C are in the ratio

3. 2 : 1
4. 4 : 1
A particle moves with constant angular velocity in a circle. During the motion its:
1. | Energy is conserved |
2. | Momentum is conserved |
3. | Energy and momentum both are conserved |
4. | None of the above is conserved |
