A wheel of a bullock cart is rolling on a level road as shows in the figure below. If its linerar speed is 
in the direction shown, which one of the following options is correct ( 
and 
are any highest and lowest points on the wheel respectively)?
A
Both the points 
and 
move with equal speed.
and move with equal speed.
B
Point 
has zero speed.
has zero speed.
C
Point 
moves slower than point 
.
moves slower than point .
D
Point 
moves faster than point 
.
moves faster than point .
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
In case of rolling, the velocity of the point of contact with the surface is zero. Also, the velocity of the point at the highest point of the rolling body is twice the velocity of COM of the body. So, point 
moves faster than point 
.
