One end of a rod of length $L=1 \,m$ is fixed to a point on the circumference of a wheel of radius $R=1 / \sqrt{3} \,m$. The other end is sliding freely along a straight channel passing through the centre $O$ of the wheel as shown in the figure. The wheel is rotating with a constant angular velocity $\omega$ about $O$. The speed of the sliding end $P$,when $\theta=60^{\circ}$ is

Two projectiles are thrown simultaneously in the same plane from the same point. If their velocities are $v_1$ and $v_2$ at angles $\theta_1$ and $\theta_2$ respectively from the horizontal,then the trajectory of particle $1$ with respect to particle $2$ will be:

At a given instant of time, the position vector of a particle moving in a circle with a velocity $\vec{v} = 3 \hat{i} - 4 \hat{j} + 5 \hat{k}$ is $\vec{r} = \hat{i} + 9 \hat{j} - 8 \hat{k}$. Its angular velocity $\vec{\omega}$ at that time is:
