Two racing cars of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are moving in circles of radii $r_1$ and $r_2$ respectively. Their speeds are such that each makes a complete circle in the same time $t$. The ratio of the angular speeds of the first to the second car is

A uniform cube of side $a$ and mass $m$ rests on a rough horizontal table. A horizontal force $F$ is applied normal to one of the faces at a point that is directly above the centre of face, at a height $\frac {3a}{4}$ above the base. The minimum value of $F$ for which the cube begins to tilt about the edge is (Assume that the cube does not slide)
