Equal torques act on the discs A and B of the previous problem, initially both being at rest. At a later instant, the linear speeds of a point on the rim of A and another point on the rim of B are vA and vB respectively. We have:
  1. vA > vB
  2. vA = vB
  3. vA < vB
  4. The relation depends on the actual magnitude of the torques.
