Three identical square plates rotate about the axes shown in the figure in such a way that their kinetic energies are equal. Each of the rotation axes passes through the centre of the square. Then the ratio of angular speeds \(\omega_{1}: \omega_{2}: \omega_{3}\) is

  1. A 01:01:01
  2. B \(\sqrt{2}: \sqrt{2}: 1\)
  3. C \(1: \sqrt{2}: 1\)
  4. D \(1: 2: \sqrt{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\sqrt{2}: \sqrt{2}: 1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We know that \[ K=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{l} \omega^{2} \] where \(K=\) kinetic energy \[ \begin{array}{l} I=\text { moment of inertia } \\ \omega=\text { angular speed } \end{array} \] So, \(\quad \omega \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{I}}\)…
