Q3. A coin placed on a rotating table just slips when it is placed at a distance of 1 cm from the centre. If the angular velocity of the table is halved, it will just slip when placed at a distance of _____ from the centre: (1) 8 cm (2) 4 cm (3) 1 cm (4) 2 cm

What This Question Tests

This question tests the understanding of centripetal force provided by static friction in circular motion and how the maximum radius for no-slipping changes with angular velocity.

Concepts Tested

Centripetal forceStatic frictionCondition for slipping

Formulas Used

F_c = mω²r

F_s_max = μ_s N
