Three point particles P, Q, R move in a circle of radius r with different but constant speeds. They start moving at t=0 from their initial positions as shown in the figure. The angular velocities (in rad sec-1) of P, Q and R are 5π, 2π and 3π respectively, in the same sense. The time at which they all meet is:
