Two uniform circular discs are rotating independently in the same direction around their common axis passing through their centres. The moment of inertia and angular velocity of the first disc are $0.1 \; kg \cdot m^{2}$ and $10 \; rad \cdot s^{-1}$ respectively,while those for the second one are $0.2 \; kg \cdot m^{2}$ and $5 \; rad \cdot s^{-1}$ respectively. At some instant,they get stuck together and start rotating as a single system about their common axis with some angular speed. The kinetic energy of the combined system is ........... $J$.

Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.
Assertion $(A)$ : In a conical pendulum,angular momentum about its vertical axis remains constant.
Reason $(R)$ : Net torque about the vertical axis of a conical pendulum is not zero.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

The position vector of a particle is given by $\vec{r} = 2\hat{i} - 6\hat{j} - 12\hat{k}$ units. $A$ force $\vec{F} = p\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} + 6\hat{k}$ units acts on it. For what value of $p$ is the angular momentum conserved?

If no external torque acts on a system,which of the following remains constant in both magnitude and direction?

$A$ disc of mass $1 \, kg$ and radius $0.1 \, m$ is rotating with angular velocity $20 \, rad/s$. What is the angular velocity (in $rad/s$) if a mass of $0.5 \, kg$ is placed on the circumference of the disc?
