One ice skater of mass $m$ moves with speed $2v$ to the right,while another of the same mass $m$ moves with speed $v$ toward the left,as shown in figure $I$. Their paths are separated by a distance $b$. At $t = 0$,when they are both at $x = 0$,they grasp a pole of length $b$ and negligible mass. For $t > 0$,consider the system as a rigid body of two masses $m$ separated by distance $b$,as shown in figure $II$. Which of the following is the correct formula for the motion after $t = 0$ of the skater initially at $y = b/2$?

$A$ uniform thin rod of length $2L$ and mass $m$ lies on a horizontal table. $A$ horizontal impulse $J$ is given to the rod at one end. There is no friction. The total kinetic energy of the rod just after the impulse will be

Two discs $A$ and $B$ are mounted coaxially on a vertical axle. The discs have moments of inertia $I$ and $2I$ respectively about the common axis. Disc $A$ is imparted an initial angular velocity $2\omega$ using the entire potential energy of a spring compressed by a distance $x_1$. Disc $B$ is imparted an angular velocity $\omega$ by a spring having the same spring constant and compressed by a distance $x_2$. Both the discs rotate in the clockwise direction.
$1.$ The ratio of $x_1/x_2$ is
$(A)$ $2$ $(B)$ $1/2$ $(C)$ $\sqrt{2}$ $(D)$ $1/\sqrt{2}$
$2.$ When disc $B$ is brought in contact with disc $A$,they acquire a common angular velocity in time $t$. The average frictional torque on one disc by the other during this period is
$(A)$ $\frac{2I\omega}{3t}$ $(B)$ $\frac{9I\omega}{2t}$ $(C)$ $\frac{9I\omega}{4t}$ $(D)$ $\frac{3I\omega}{2t}$

$(A)$ $\frac{I\omega^2}{2}$ $(B)$ $\frac{I\omega^2}{3}$ $(C)$ $\frac{I\omega^2}{4}$ $(D)$ $\frac{I\omega^2}{6}$

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.

$A$ uniform rod of mass $m$ and length $\ell$ hinged at end $A$ is released from the horizontal position shown in the figure. Just after the rod is released:

$A$ uniform rod of length $L$ and mass $M$ is placed on a smooth horizontal surface. $A$ particle of mass $m$ moving with velocity $v$ strikes the rod at one end perpendicular to the rod. After the collision,the particle comes to rest. What is the angular velocity of the rod about its centre of mass after the collision?
