  • A
    Friction force on the disc is in the backward direction until pure rolling starts.
  • B
    Friction force between the disc and the plank is kinetic in nature until pure rolling starts.
  • C
    Total momentum of the system (disc and plank) is conserved.
  • D
    Angular momentum of the disc about any point on the horizontal surface remains conserved.

This question has Statement $1$ and Statement $2$. Of the four choices given after the Statements,choose the one that best describes the two Statements.
Statement $1$ : When the moment of inertia $I$ of a body rotating about an axis with angular speed $\omega$ increases,its angular momentum $L$ remains unchanged,but the kinetic energy $K$ decreases if no external torque is applied.
Statement $2$ : $L = I\omega$ and the rotational kinetic energy $K = \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2 = \frac{L^2}{2I}$.

$A$ circular platform is situated in a horizontal plane and can rotate about a vertical axis passing through its center. $A$ tortoise is sitting at one edge of the platform,and the platform is rotating with a constant angular velocity $\omega_0$. If the tortoise starts moving with a uniform speed along a chord of the circular platform,how will the angular velocity of the platform change with time $t$?

One twirls a circular ring (of mass $M$ and radius $R$) near the tip of one's finger as shown in Figure $1$. In the process,the finger never loses contact with the inner rim of the ring. The finger traces out the surface of a cone,shown by the dotted line. The radius of the path traced out by the point where the ring and the finger are in contact is $r$. The finger rotates with an angular velocity $\omega_0$. The rotating ring rolls without slipping on the outside of a smaller circle described by the point where the ring and the finger are in contact (Figure $2$). The coefficient of friction between the ring and the finger is $\mu$ and the acceleration due to gravity is $g$.
$(1)$ The total kinetic energy of the ring is
$[A]$ $M \omega_0^2 R^2$ $[B]$ $\frac{1}{2} M \omega_0^2(R-r)^2$ $[C]$ $M \omega_0^2(R-r)^2$ $[D]$ $\frac{3}{2} M \omega_0^2(R-r)^2$
$(2)$ The minimum value of $\omega_0$ below which the ring will drop down is
$[A]$ $\sqrt{\frac{g}{\mu(R-r)}}$ $[B]$ $\sqrt{\frac{2 g}{\mu(R-r)}}$ $[C]$ $\sqrt{\frac{3 g}{2 \mu(R-r)}}$ $[D]$ $\sqrt{\frac{g}{2 \mu(R-r)}}$
