$A$ man is sitting in a smooth groove on a horizontal circular table at the edge by holding a rope joined to the centre. The moment of inertia of the table is $I$. The mass of the man is $M$. The man now pulls the rope so that he comes to the centre. The angular velocity of the table:

  • A
    must increase
  • B
    may increase

The angular momentum of a particle performing uniform circular motion is $L$. If the kinetic energy of the particle is doubled and the frequency is halved,then the new angular momentum becomes:

Consider a body of mass $1.0 \ kg$ at rest at the origin at time $t=0$. $A$ force $\overrightarrow{F}=(\alpha t \hat{i}+\beta \hat{j})$ is applied on the body,where $\alpha=1.0 \ Ns^{-1}$ and $\beta=1.0 \ N$. The torque acting on the body about the origin at time $t=1.0 \ s$ is $\vec{\tau}$. Which of the following statements is (are) true?
$(A)$ $|\vec{\tau}|=\frac{1}{3} \ Nm$
$(B)$ The torque $\vec{\tau}$ is in the direction of the unit vector $+\hat{k}$
$(C)$ The velocity of the body at $t=1 \ s$ is $\overrightarrow{v}=\frac{1}{2}(\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}) \ ms^{-1}$
$(D)$ The magnitude of displacement of the body at $t=1 \ s$ is $\frac{1}{6} \ m$

State whether the following statements are true or false:
$(1)$ In the law of conservation of momentum, the center of mass velocity remains constant.
$(2)$ "If the resultant of internal forces on a system is zero, then the total linear momentum of the system remains constant." This is the statement of the law of conservation of linear momentum.
$(3)$ The position of the center of mass of a rigid body must always be inside the rigid body.
$(4)$ All particles of a rigid body undergoing rotational motion have the same linear velocity.

The figure shows a system consisting of $(i)$ a ring of outer radius $3R$ rolling clockwise without slipping on a horizontal surface with angular speed $\omega$ and $(ii)$ an inner disc of radius $2R$ rotating anti-clockwise with angular speed $\omega/2$. The ring and disc are separated by frictionless ball bearings. The system is in the $x-z$ plane. The point $P$ on the inner disc is at distance $R$ from the origin,where $OP$ makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. Then with respect to the horizontal surface,
$(A)$ the point $O$ has linear velocity $3R\omega\hat{i}$.
$(B)$ the point $P$ has a linear velocity $\frac{11}{4}R\omega\hat{i} + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}R\omega\hat{k}$.
$(C)$ the point $P$ has linear velocity $\frac{13}{4}R\omega\hat{i} - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}R\omega\hat{k}$.
$(D)$ The point $P$ has a linear velocity $(3 - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4})R\omega\hat{i} + \frac{1}{4}R\omega\hat{k}$.
