Angular Velocity: Find Angular Velocity of A w.r.t B using Radii & ω

AI Thread Summary
To find the angular velocity of particle A with respect to particle B, one must consider the radii R₁ and R₂ and their respective angular velocities ω₁ and ω₂. The relationship between angular velocity and linear velocity is crucial, as the particles are moving at constant velocities. The formula ω₁₂ = (|V perpendicular|)/(vector R) is relevant, but clarification is needed on whether to use linear or angular velocity in calculations. Understanding these concepts will lead to the correct determination of angular velocity in this scenario. Proper application of the equations will yield the desired result.

Homework Statement



radii R₁, R₂, angular velocity ω₁, ω₂

Homework Equations



Two particles 1 and 2 describe co-planar concentric circles of radii R₁ and R₂ with angular velocities ω₁ and ω₂ as shown in the figure. Find the angular velocity of A with respect to B.

The Attempt at a Solution



Θ will be constant as particles are moving with constant velocity. therefore, ω₁₂=(|V perpendicular|)/(vector R). But i am not sure whether i proceeded right. Please help.

You've got to a good start by correctly understanding that both particles are moving at constant "velocity". What you don't mention is... what velocity? The same linear or angular velocity?

Thread 'Errors and significant figures'

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...

Figure 1 Overall Structure Diagram Figure 2: Top view of the piston when it is cylindrical A circular opening is created at a height of 5 meters above the water surface. Inside this opening is a sleeve-type piston with a cross-sectional area of 1 square meter. The piston is pulled to the right at a constant speed. The pulling force is（Figure 2）： F = ρshg = 1000 × 1 × 5 × 10 = 50,000 N. Figure 3: Modifying the structure to incorporate a fixed internal piston When I modify the piston...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
