If the earth suddenly stops revolving and all its rotational $KE$ is used up in raising its temperature and if $s$ is taken to be the specific heat of the earth's material,the rise of temperature of the earth will be: ($R =$ radius of the earth and $\omega =$ its angular velocity,$J =$ Joule's constant)

  • A
    $\frac{R^2 \omega^2}{5Js}$
  • B
    $\frac{R^2 \omega^2}{5J}$
  • C
    $\frac{R^2 \omega}{5Js}$
  • D
    $\frac{R^2 \omega^2}{5s}$

The angular momentum of a rotating body is $L$. When the frequency of the rotating body is tripled and its kinetic energy is made one-third, the new angular momentum becomes:

$A$ metal rod of length $L$ and mass $m$ is pivoted at one end. $A$ thin disk of mass $M$ and radius $R$ $(R < L)$ is attached at its center to the free end of the rod. Consider two ways the disc is attached: (case $A$) The disc is not free to rotate about its center and (case $B$) the disc is free to rotate about its center. The rod-disc system performs $SHM$ in a vertical plane after being released from the same displaced position. Which of the following statement$(s)$ is (are) true?
