A circular table with the smooth horizontal surface is rotating at an angular speed about its axis. A groove is made on the surface along a radius, and a small particle is gently placed inside the groove at a distance from the center. Find the speed of the particle with respect to the table as its distance from the center becomes .

Important Questions on Circular Motion
