Two identical uniform discs roll without slipping on two different surfaces AB and CD (see figure) starting at A and C with linear speeds v, and vo, respectively, and always remain in contact with the surfaces. If they reach B and D with the same linear speed and v1 = 3 m/s, then vg in m/s is (g = 10 m/s?) A horizontal circular platform of radius 0.5 m and mass 0.45 kg is free to rotate about its axis. Two massless spring toy-guns, each carrying a steel ball of mass 0.05 kg are attached to the platform at a distance 0.25 m from the centre on its either sides along its diameter (see figure). Each gun simultaneously fires the balls horizontally and perpendicular to the diameter in opposite directions. After leaving the platform, the balls have horizontal speed of 9 ms’! with respect to the ground. The rotational speed of the platform in rad s| after the balls leave the platform is A uniform circular disc of mass 1.5 kg and radius 0.5 m is initially at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface. Three forces of equal magnitude F = 0.5 N are applied simultaneously along the three sides of an equilateral triangle XYZ with its vertices on the perimeter of the disc (see figure). One second after applying the forces, the angular speed of the disc in rad s1 is F Question 8) A roller is made by joining together two cones at their vertices O. It is kept on two rails AB and CD, which are placed asymmetrically (see figure), with its axis perpendicular to CD and its centre O at the centre of line joining AB and CD. It is givena light push so that it starts rolling with its centre O moving parallel to CD in the direction shown. As it moves, the roller will tend to: Bop mien tpl} (A) go straight (B) Turn left and right alternately (C) Turn left (D) Turn right A heavy bead of mass m is placed on a rigid smooth massless rod of length L . The bead is placed at the mid point of the rod in uniform gravity . The system is released from horizontal position as shown at t=0 find : 1) angular velocity and angular acceleration of rod as a function of time 2) time after which the rod will hit the vertical wall Xo ‘| ‘A bobbin rolls without slipping over a horizontal surface so that the velocity v of the end of the thread (poin A) is directed along the horizontal. A board hinged at point B leans against the bobbin (Figure). The inner and outer radii of the bobbin are r and R respectively. Determine the angular velocity of the board as a function of an angle a. 1.57. A round cone with half-angle a = 30° and the radius of the base R = 5.0 cm rolls uniformly and without slipping over a hori- zontal plane as shown in Fig. 1.8. The cone apex is hinged at the Point O which is on the same level with the point C, the cone base centre. The velocity of point C is v = 10.0 cm/s. Find the moduli of (a) the vector of the angular velocity of the cone and the angle it forms with the vertical; the vector of the angular acceleration of the cone. Two thin circular dics of mass m and 4m, having radii of a and 2a, respectively, are rigidly fixed by a massless, rigid rod of length £ = 24 a through their centers. This assembly is laid on a firm and flat surface, and set rolling without slipping on the surface so that the angular speed about the axis of the rod is @. the angular momentum of the entire assembly about the point 'O' is L (see the figure). Which of the following statement (s) is (are) true? A) The magnitude of the z-component of Lis 55 ma? . B) The magnitude of angular momentum of the assembly about its center of mass is 17 ma? w/2. C) The magnitude of angular momentum of center of mass of the assembly about the point O is 81 ma’ ow. D) The center of mass of the assembly rotates about the z-axis with an angular speed of «/S. 5. The following is the top view of an assembly kept on a smooth horizontal table. a A massless inextensible string of length D lies with one end fixed, while the other is attached to one end of a uniform rod of length L. The system is initially at rest with the rod aligned along the 2-axis and the string stretched to its natural length at an angle with the negative y-axis 6 (cos? = 1/3). At a certain instant, a bullet of the same mass m as the rod and negligible dimensions is fired horizontally along the posi y-direction. "The bullet hits the rod at its right end with velocity #, and gets lodged in it, the impact being nearly instantaneous, What is the tension (7) in the string immediately after the impact? Assume the string doesn’t break. Consider a long, solid, rigid, regular hexagonal prism like a common type of pencil (Figure 1.1). The mass of the prism is M and it is uniformly distributed. The length of each side of the cross-sectional hexagon is a. The moment of inertia J of the hexagonal prism about its central axis is 1=2Med (LL) \ a \ Figure 1.1: A solid prism with the cross section of a regular hexagon. ‘The moment of inertia J’ about an edge of the prism is rete (1.2) -p : a) (3.5 points) The prism is initially at rest with its axis horizontal on an inclined plane which makes a small angle @ with the horizontal (Figure 1.2). Assume that the surfaces of the prism are slightly concave so that the prism only touches the plane at its edges. The effect: of this concavity on the moment. of inertia can be ignored. The prism is now displaced from rest and starts an uneven rolling down the plane. Assume that friction prevents any sliding and that the prism does not lose contact with the plane. The angular velocity just before a given edge hits the plane is w; while wy is the angular velocity immediately after the impact.
