MCQ
A rolling wheel of $12 \,kg$ is on an inclined plane at position $P$ and connected to a mass of $3 \,kg$ through a string of fixed length and pulley as shown in figure. Consider $PR$ as friction free surface. The velocity of centre of mass of the wheel when it reaches at the bottom $Q$ of the inclined plane $P Q$ will be $\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{ xgh } \,m / s$. The value of $x$ is.............
  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $6$
  • C
    $1$
  • $3$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$3$
d
Net loss in $PE =$ Gain in $KE$

$12 gh -3 gh =\frac{1}{2} 3 v ^{2}+\frac{1}{2} 12 v ^{2}+\frac{1}{2}\left[12 r ^{2}\right]\left(\frac{ v }{ r }\right)^{2}$

$9 gh =\frac{1}{2}[3+12+12] v ^{2}$

$v ^{2}=\frac{2 gh }{3} \Rightarrow v =\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{8}{3} gh }$

$x =\frac{8}{3} \simeq 3$
