Detailed Solution

If ω be its angular velocity and since O is the instantaneous centre of rotation, then VA=ω×OA and 

  1. Rolling Without Slipping: In rolling motion without slipping, the velocity of the point of contact with the surface (let's call it PP) is zero relative to the surface.
  2. Velocity at Different Points on the Ring:
    • The center of mass (COM) of the ring has a translational velocity vv.
    • The topmost point of the ring (point BB) has a velocity equal to v+Rωv + R\omega, where ω\omega is the angular velocity of the ring and RR is its radius.
    • The bottommost point of the ring (point AA) has a velocity of vRωv - R\omega.
  3. Rolling Condition: The rolling without slipping condition implies v=Rωv = R\omega.

Given Data:

  • Speed of point AA: 4m/s4 \, \text{m/s}.

For point AA, the velocity relative to the ground is given as vRω=4m/sv - R\omega = 4 \, \text{m/s}. Using the rolling condition v=Rωv = R\omega, we get:

vv=4m/s,v - v = 4 \, \text{m/s},

which implies:

v=4m/s.v = 4 \, \text{m/s}.

Speed of Point BB:

At the topmost point BB, the velocity is:

vB=v+Rω.v_B = v + R\omega.

Substituting Rω=vR\omega = v:

vB=v+v=2v.v_B = v + v = 2v.

With v=4m/sv = 4 \, \text{m/s}:

vB=2×4=8m/s.v_B = 2 \times 4 = 8 \, \text{m/s}.

VB=ω×OB

VBVA=ω×OBω×OA=2R2RVBV=12VB=22m/s
