Three particles, each of mass m gram, are situated at the vertices of an equilateral triangle ABC of side/cm (as shown in the figure). The moment of inertia of the system about a line AX perpendicular to AB and in the plane of ABC, in gram-cm2 units will be
-
Solution
IAX = m(AB)2+ m(OC)2 = ml2 + m (l cos 60º)2= ml2 + ml2/4 = 5/4 ml2
A round disc of moment of inertia I2 about its axis perpendicular to its plane and passing through its centre is placed over another disc of moment of inertia I1 rotating with an angular velocity ω about the same axis. The final angular velocity of the combination of discs is
-
Solution
Angular momentum will be conserved
I1ω= I1ω' + I2ω' ⇒ \(\frac{I_{1}\omega }{I_{1}+I_{2}}\)
The ratio of the radii of gyration of a circular disc about a tangential axis in the plane of the disc and of a circular ring of the same radius about a tangential axis in the plane of the ring is

Solution
Consider a system of two particles having masses m1 and m2 . If the particle of mass m1 is pushed towards the centre of mass particles through a distance d, by what distance would the particle of mass m2 move so as to keep the mass centre of particles at the original position?
-
Solution
m1d = m2 d2 ⇒ d2 = \(\frac{m_{1}}{m_{2}}d\)
A wheel having moment of inertia 2 kg-m2 about its vertical axis, rotates at the rate of 60 rpm about this axis, The torque which can stop the wheel’s rotation in one minute would be

Solution
An annular ring with inner and outer radii R1 and R2 is rolling without slipping with a uniform angular speed. The ratio of the forces experienced by the two particles situated on the inner and outer parts of the ring , F1⁄F2 is

Solution
In a bicycle, the radius of rear wheel is twice the radius of front wheel. If rF and rF are the radii, vr and vr are the speed of top most points of wheel. Then
-
Solution
The velocity of the top point of the wheel is twice that of centre of mass. And the speed of centre of mass is same for both the wheels.
A sphere rolls down on an inclined plane of inclination θ.What is the acceleration as the sphere reaches bottom?
-
Solution
A toy car rolls down the inclined plane as shown in the fig.It loops at the bottom. What is the relation between H and h?
-
Solution
Velocity at the bottom and top of the circle is \(\sqrt{5gr}\) and \(\sqrt{gr}\). Therefore (1/2)M(5gr) = MgH and (1/2) M (gr) = Mgh.
Fig. shows a disc rolling on a horizontal plane with linear velocity v. Its linear velocity is v and angular velocity is ω.Which of the following gives the velocity of the particle P on the rim of the disc
-
Solution
Velocity of P = (NP)ω = (NM + MP)ω
= r(r + sin θ)ω = v(1 + sinθ)
