$A$ uniform body of mass $M$ and radius $R$ has a small mass $m$ attached at its edge as shown in the figure. The system is placed on a perfectly rough horizontal surface such that mass $m$ is at the same horizontal level as the centre of the body. It is assumed that there is no slipping at point $A$. If $I_A$ is the moment of inertia of the combined system about the point of contact $A$,then the normal reaction at point $A$ just after the system is released from rest is ........ $N$. ($M = 6 \ kg$,$m = 2 \ kg$,$I_A = 4 \ kg \ m^2$,$R = 1 \ m$,$g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

Disc $A$ and disc $B$ (with a hole) have equal mass and radius,and a string is wrapped around them as shown. An equal force $F$ is applied to the string of each body. Friction is sufficient for rolling. After time $t$,the velocity of $A$ is $v_A$ and that of $B$ is $v_B$,and their kinetic energies are $k_A$ and $k_B$ respectively. Then:

$A$ pendulum consists of a bob of mass $m=0.1 \ kg$ and a massless inextensible string of length $L=1.0 \ m$. It is suspended from a fixed point at height $H=0.9 \ m$ above a frictionless horizontal floor. Initially,the bob of the pendulum is lying on the floor at rest vertically below the point of suspension. $A$ horizontal impulse $P=0.2 \ kg \cdot m/s$ is imparted to the bob at some instant. After the bob slides for some distance,the string becomes taut and the bob lifts off the floor. The magnitude of the angular momentum of the pendulum about the point of suspension just before the bob lifts off is $J \ kg \cdot m^2/s$. The kinetic energy of the pendulum just after the lift-off is $K$ Joules. $(1)$ The value of $J$ is. . . . . . $(2)$ The value of $K$ is. . . . . Give the answers of the questions $(1)$ and $(2)$.
