$A$ uniformly thick wheel with moment of inertia $I$ and radius $R$ is free to rotate about its centre of mass (see fig). $A$ massless string is wrapped over its rim and two blocks of masses $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ $(m_{1} > m_{2})$ are attached to the ends of the string. The system is released from rest. The angular speed of the wheel when $m_{1}$ descends by a distance $h$ is

  • A
    $\left[\frac{m_{1}+m_{2}}{\left(m_{1}+m_{2}\right) R^{2}+I}\right]^{\frac{1}{2}} gh$
  • B
    $\left[\frac{2\left(m_{1}-m_{2}\right) gh}{\left(m_{1}+m_{2}\right) R^{2}+I}\right]^{\frac{1}{2}}$
  • C
    $\left[\frac{2\left(m_{1}+m_{2}\right) gh}{\left(m_{1}+m_{2}\right) R^{2}+I}\right]^{\frac{1}{2}}$
  • D
    $\left[\frac{\left(m_{1}-m_{2}\right)}{\left(m_{1}+m_{2}\right) R^{2}+I}\right]^{\frac{1}{2}} gh$

What is the direction of angular velocity for a rigid body?

$A$ bob of mass $m$ is tied by a massless string whose other end is wound on a flywheel (disc) of radius $R$ and mass $m$. When released from rest,the bob starts falling vertically downwards. If the bob has covered a vertical distance $h$,then the angular speed of the wheel will be (There is no slipping between the string and the wheel,$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity).

What is the direction of angular velocity in circular motion about a fixed axis of rotation?

$A$ flywheel having mass $3 \ kg$ and radius $5 \ m$ is free to rotate about a horizontal axis. $A$ string having negligible mass is wound around the wheel and the loose end of the string is connected to a $3 \ kg$ mass. The mass is kept at rest initially and released. The kinetic energy of the flywheel when the mass descends by $3 \ m$ is . . . . . . $J$. $(g = 10 \ m/s^{2})$
