$A$ solid sphere of mass $m$,radius $R$,having moment of inertia about an axis passing through its center of mass as $I$ is recast into a disc of thickness $t$ whose moment of inertia about an axis passing through the rim (edge) and perpendicular to its plane remains $I$. Then the radius of the disc is:

  • A
    $\frac{2 R}{\sqrt{15}}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\frac{2}{15}} R$
  • C
    $\frac{4 R}{\sqrt{15}}$
  • D
    $\frac{R}{4}$

$A$ 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 the line joining $AB$ and $CD$ (see figure). It is given a 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

$A$ wheel of radius $r$ rolls without slipping with a speed $v$ on a horizontal road. When it is at a point $A$ on the road,a small lump of mud separates from the wheel at its highest point $B$ and drops at point $C$ on the road. The distance $AC$ will be

$A$,$B$,and $C$ are a disc,a solid sphere,and a spherical shell respectively,with the same radii $(R)$ and masses $(M)$. These bodies are placed as shown in the figure. The moment of inertia of the given system about the axis $PQ$ is $\frac{x}{15} I$,where $I$ is the moment of inertia of the disc about its diameter. The value of $x$ is . . . . . . .

$A$ spherical rigid ball is released from rest and starts rolling down an inclined plane from height $h=7 \, m$,as shown in the figure. It hits a block at rest on the horizontal plane (assume elastic collision). If the mass of both the ball and the block is $m$ and the ball is rolling without sliding,then the speed of the block after collision is close to ............. $m/s$.
