The figure shows a system consisting of (i) a ring of outer radius
rolling clockwise without slipping on a horizontal surface with angular speed
and (ii) an inner disc of radius
rotating anti-clockwise with angular speed
. The ring and disc are separated by frictionless ball bearings. The system is in the
plane. The point
on the inner disc is at a distance
from the origin, where
makes an angle of
with the horizontal. Then with respect to the horizontal surface,
