The inner circle runs faster (?)
They rotate at the same angular velocity. But the inner circle "slips" too, while the outer one does not.
Nice drawing!
The two points take different paths, travelling different distances. The fact that the horizontal distance they move is equal doesn't factor in the fact that the point further out takes a longer path.
Also, the distance that the inner point moves horizontally isn't related to *its* circumference. It's just a point on a larger wheel being carried a distance related to *that* wheel's circumference. Its movement through space is unrelated to its own dimensions.
The angular velocity of the inner circle should be greater than that of the outer circle. Where's my prize ????
