$A$ rod $PQ$ of mass $M$ and length $L$ is hinged at end $P$. The rod is kept horizontal by a massless string tied to point $Q$ as shown in the figure. When the string is cut,the initial angular acceleration of the rod is

  • A
    $\frac{g}{L}$
  • B
    $\frac{2g}{L}$
  • C
    $\frac{2g}{3L}$
  • D
    $\frac{3g}{2L}$

$A$ massless rod of length $2l$ has equal point masses $m$ attached to its two ends as shown in the figure. The rod is rotating about an axis passing through its centre and making an angle $\alpha$ with the axis. The magnitude of the rate of change of angular momentum of the rod,i.e.,$\left|\frac{dL}{dt}\right|$,is equal to:

$A$ flywheel of moment of inertia $2 \, kg \cdot m^2$ is rotated at a speed of $30 \, rad/s$. $A$ tangential force at the rim stops the wheel in $15 \, s$. The average torque of the force is ........... $N \cdot m$.

$A$ wheel is rotating about an axis through its centre at $720 \, rpm$. It is acted on by a constant torque opposing its motion for $8 \, s$ to bring it to rest finally. The value of torque (in $N \cdot m$) is (Given $I = \frac{24}{\pi} \, kg \cdot m^2$)

$A$ string is wound around the rim of a mounted flywheel (disc) of mass $20 \, kg$ and radius $20 \, cm$. $A$ steady pull of $25 \, N$ is applied on the cord. Neglecting friction and the mass of the string,the angular acceleration of the wheel in $rad/s^2$ is

What does the time rate of change of angular momentum represent?
