VA = 80 m/s, VB = 140 m/s
rB – rA = 300 ...(i)
ω × rA = 80
ω × rB = 140∴ rB = 1.75 ...................(ii) rA
Solving (i) and (ii), rB = 700 mm.
∴ Diameter of wheel is 1400 mm.Correct Option: A
VA = 80 m/s, VB = 140 m/s

Solving (i) and (ii), rB = 700 mm.
∴ Diameter of wheel is 1400 mm.
- The rod PQ of length L = 2 m and uniformly distributed mass of M = 10 kg, is released from rest at the position shown in the figure. The ends slide along the friction less faces OP and OQ. Assume acceleration due to gravity, g = 10 m/s2. The mass moment of inertia of the rod about its centre of mass and an axis perpendicular to the plane of the figure is (ML2/12). At this instant, the magnitude of angular acceleration (in radian/s2) of the rod is ______.'
