The correct answer is: 1:2
Angular velocity of particle $P$ about point $A$,
$\omega_A=\frac{v}{r_{A B}}=\frac{v}{2 r}$
Angular velocity of particle $P$ about point $C$,
$\begin{aligned} & \omega_C=\frac{v}{r_{B C}^r}=\frac{v}{r} \\ & \text { Ratio } \frac{\omega_A}{\omega_C}=\frac{v / 2 r}{v / r}=\frac{1}{2} .\end{aligned}$
