Question
Three point particles P, Q, R move in a circle of radius ′r′ with different but constant speeds. They start moving at t = 0 from their initial positions as shown in the figure. The angular velocities (in rad/sec) of P, Q and R are 5π, 2π & 3π respectively, in the same sense. The time interval after which they all meet is:


Options
A.2/3 sec
B.1/6 sec
C.1/2 sec
D.3/2 sec
Solution
ωQP = 2π − 5π = − 3π rad/s
ωRP = 3π − 5π = − 2π rad/s
