If radius of the solid sphere is doubled by keeping its mass constant, the ratio of their moment of inertia about any of its diameter is
  • A
    $1: 8$
  • B
    $2: 5$
  • C
    $2: 3$
  • $1: 4$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$1: 4$
(d) : Moment of inertia of a solid sphere of mass $M$ and radius $R$ about its diameter is,
$
I=\frac{2}{5} M R^2
$
When the radius of the solid sphere is doubled keeping the mass constant, the new moment of inertia is,
$
I^{\prime}=\frac{2}{5} M(2 R)^2=\frac{8}{5} M R^2 \quad \therefore \quad \frac{I}{I^{\prime}}=\frac{2 M R^2}{5} \times \frac{5}{8 M R^2}=\frac{1}{4}

The real force ' $F$ ' acting on a particle of mass ' $m$ ' performing circular motion acts along the radius of circle ' $r$ ' and is directed towards the centre of circle. The square root of magnitude of such force is ( $T=$ periodic time)
  • $\frac{2 \pi}{T} \sqrt{m r}$
  • B
    $\frac{T m r}{4 \pi}$
  • C
    $\frac{2 \pi T}{\sqrt{m r}}$
  • D
    $\frac{T^2 m r}{4 \pi}$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\frac{2 \pi}{T} \sqrt{m r}$
(a) : In circular motion, the real force $F$ is provided by the centripetal force acting on the particle.
Now, $F=\frac{m v^2}{r}$ where $m$ is the mass of the particle and $r$ is the radius of the circular path.
$
\begin{aligned}
& \text { Now, } v=\frac{2 \pi r}{T} \quad \therefore F=\frac{m}{r} \times\left(\frac{2 \pi r}{T}\right)^2 \\
& \Rightarrow F=\frac{m r}{T^2} \times 4 \pi^2 \quad \therefore \sqrt{F}=\frac{2 \pi}{T} \sqrt{m r}

  • C
    $\frac{19}{12}$
  • D

  • A
    $\sqrt{14} m$
  • $\sqrt{2.8} m$
  • C
    $\sqrt{1.4} m$
  • D
    $\sqrt{0.7} m$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\sqrt{2.8} m$
(b) : Kinetic energy of rolling solid sphere
$
\begin{aligned}

& =\frac{1}{2} m v^2+\frac{1}{2} I \omega^2=\frac{1}{2} m v^2+\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{2}{5} m r^2 \omega^2 \\

& =\frac{1}{2} m v^2+\frac{1}{5} m v^2=\frac{7}{10} m v^2 \\
& =\frac{7}{10} \times 2 \times(6)^2=\frac{7}{10} \times 2 \times 36=\frac{252}{5}

$
The potential energy of the spring of maximum compression $x=\frac{1}{2} k x^2$

or $\frac{1}{2} k x^2=\frac{252}{5}$ or $k x^2=\frac{252 \times 2}{5}$

or $\quad x^2=\frac{252 \times 2}{5 \times 36}=2.8 \quad$ or $\quad x=\sqrt{2.8} m$

Another disc of moment of inertia $I_2$ having zero angular speed is placed coaxially on a rotating disc. Now both the discs are rotating with constant angular speed $\omega_2$. The energy lost by the initial rotating disc is

  • $\frac{1}{2}\left[\frac{I_1 I_2}{I_1+I_2}\right] \omega_1^2$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$\frac{1}{2}\left[\frac{I_1 I_2}{I_1+I_2}\right] \omega_1^2$
(d) : As no external torque is applied to the system, the angular momentum of the system remains conserved.
$
\therefore \quad L_1=L_2
$
According to given problem,
$
I_1 \omega_1=\left(I_1+I_2\right) \omega_2
$
or $\omega_2=\frac{I_1 \omega_1}{\left(I_1+I_2\right)}$  .....(i)
Initial energy, $E_1=\frac{1}{2} I_1 \omega_1^2$ .....(ii)
Final energy, $E_2=\frac{1}{2}\left(I_1+I_2\right) \omega_2^2$  .....(iii)
Substituting the value of $\omega_2$ from equation (i) in equation (iii), we get
Final energy, $E_2=\frac{1}{2}\left(I_1+I_2\right)\left(\frac{I_1 \omega_1}{I_1+I_2}\right)^2$
$
=\frac{1}{2} \frac{I_1^2 \omega_1^2}{\left(I_1+I_2\right)}
$  .....(iv)
Loss of energy, $\Delta E=E_1-E_2$
$
\begin{aligned}
& =\frac{1}{2} I_1 \omega_1^2-\frac{1}{2} \frac{I_1^2 \omega_1^2}{\left(I_1+I_2\right)} \quad \text { (Using (ii) and (iv)) } \\
& =\frac{\omega_1^2}{2}\left(\frac{I_1^2+I_2 I_1-I_1^2}{\left(I_1+I_2\right)}\right)=\frac{1}{2} \frac{I_2 I_1}{\left(I_1+I_2\right)} \omega_1^2

A wheel of moment of inertia $2 kg m ^2$ is rotating about an axis passing through centre and perpendicular to its plane at a speed $60 rad / s$. Due to friction, it comes to rest in 5 minutes. The angular momentum of the wheel three minutes before it stops rotating is
Answer
Correct option: C.
(c) : Given, $I=2 kg m ^2, \omega_0=60 rad / s$
$\omega=0 \quad$ (... it comes to rest)
$t=5$ minute $=5 \times 60=300$ second
$\omega=\omega_0+\alpha t$

For 2 minute (= 120 second)
$
\omega=\omega_0+\alpha t=60-\frac{1}{5} \times 120=60-24=36 rad / s

Correct option: C.
$\left[\frac{2 m g h}{I+m r^2}\right]^{1 / 2}$
(c) : Let speed of the block be $v$ when it is falling through a distance $h$. So it is also the speed of string and a particle at the rim of the wheel.
