A disc placed on a frictionless horizontal plank is rotating with a constant angular velocity ω about its central vertical axis. Now the plank is made to move with a constant acceleration α on a straight path. If you assume initial location of the centre of disc as origin, direction of motion of the plank in negative y-axis of the coordinate system attached with the plank, which of the following equations represent trajectroy of instantaneous centre of rotation of the disc.
