NEET 2024 Physics Rolling Motion MCQ Question
A wheel of a bullock cart is rolling on a level road as shown in the figure below. If its linear speed is v in the direction shown, which one of the following options is correct (P and Q are any highest and lowest points on the wheel, respectively)?
Both the points P and Q move with equal speed.
Point P has zero speed.
Point P moves slower than point Q.
Point P moves faster than point Q.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
At the top of the wheel, the point P has the highest speed due to the combination of translational and rotational motion, while point Q at the bottom has zero speed relative to the ground.
