MCQ
A small object of uniform density rolls up a curved surface with an initial velocity $v$. It reaches upto a maximum height of $3v^2/4g$ with respect to the initial position. The object is
  • A
    Ring
  • B
    Solid sphere
  • C
    Hollow sphere
  • Disc

Answer

Correct option: D.
Disc
d
By the concept of energy conservation

$\frac{1}{2} m v^2+\frac{1}{2} I \omega^2=M g h$

$\frac{1}{2} M v^2+\frac{1}{2} I\left(\frac{v}{R}\right)^2=M g\left(\frac{3 v^2}{4 g}\right)\left(\because \omega=\frac{v}{R}\right)$

$\frac{1}{2} I \frac{v^2}{R^2}=\frac{3}{4} M v^2-\frac{1}{2} M v^2=\frac{1}{4} M v^2$

$I=\frac{1}{2} M R^2$

The object is Disc

Three different projectiles, each with the same mass, are fired with speed $v$ at a wall. In case $A,$ the projectile bounces straight back with speed $v.$ In case $B$, the projectile sticks to the wall. In case $C$, the projectile crashes through the wall and emerges with half its original speed. These three cases are shown here.

Place the impulse exerted by the wall on the projectile in each of these three cases in the correct order.
