In a bicycle,the radius of the rear wheel is twice the radius of the front wheel. If $r_F$ and $r_r$ are the radii,and $v_F$ and $v_r$ are the speeds of the topmost points of the wheels respectively,then:

  • A
    $v_r = 2 v_F$
  • B
    $v_F = 2 v_r$
  • C
    $v_F = v_r$
  • D
    $v_F > v_r$

$A$ small roller of diameter $20 \ cm$ has an axle of diameter $10 \ cm$. It is on a horizontal floor and a meter scale is positioned horizontally on its axle with one edge of the scale on top of the axle. The scale is now pushed slowly on the axle so that it moves without slipping on the axle,and the roller starts rolling without slipping. After the roller has moved $50 \ cm$,the position of the scale will look like (figures are schematic and not drawn to scale)-
