Consider two spinning tops with different radii. Both have the same linear instantaneous velocities at their edges. Which top has a smaller angular velocity? the top with the smaller radius because the radius of curvature is inversely proportional to the angular velocity the top with the smaller radius because the radius of curvature is directly proportional to the angular velocity the top with the larger radius because the radius of curvature is inversely proportional to the angular velocity The top with the larger radius because the radius of curvature is directly proportional to the angular velocity
