Please help :/
Two objects have the same center point of the circle, but are located at different positions away from the center point. Each object is moving with uniform circular motion. Which would describe the tangential speed of the objects?

A) both objects would have the same tangential speed
B) the object with the smaller radius has a faster tangential speed
C) the object with the larger radius has a faster tangential speed
D) both objects would have oscillating tangential speeds

Respuesta :

C. The object with the larger radius has a faster tangential speed.

What is tangential speed?

Tangential speed is the linear component of the speed of any object which is moving along a circular path.

v = ωr

where;

  • ω is angular speed
  • r is the radius of the circular path

If both object the same center point, they will have the same angular speed but different tangential speed due to their location from the center point.

Thus, the object with the larger radius has a faster tangential speed.
