$A$ thin uniform metal rod of mass $M$ and length $L$ is swinging about a horizontal axis passing through its end. Its maximum angular velocity is $\omega$. Its centre of mass rises to a maximum height of (where $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity):

  • A
    $\frac{L^2 \omega^2}{3g}$
  • B
    $\frac{L^2 \omega^2}{2g}$
  • C
    $\frac{L^2 \omega^2}{6g}$
  • D
    $\frac{L^2 \omega^2}{4g}$

$A$ disc of mass $1\,kg$ and radius $R$ is free to rotate about a horizontal axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to the plane of the disc. $A$ body of the same mass as that of the disc is fixed at the highest point of the disc. Now the system is released. When the body comes to the lowest position,its angular speed will be $4 \sqrt{\frac{x}{3 R}} \text{ rad s}^{-1}$ where $x=$ (Given $g = 10 \text{ m s}^{-2}$)

$A$ uniform rod of length $L$ is free to rotate in a vertical plane about a fixed horizontal axis through $B$. The rod begins rotating from rest from its unstable equilibrium position. When it has turned through an angle $\theta$,its angular velocity $\omega$ is given as

Write the formula for power in the motion of a rigid body.

The moment of inertia of a body about a given axis is $2.4 \ kg \cdot m^2$. To produce a rotational kinetic energy of $750 \ J$,an angular acceleration of $5 \ rad/s^2$ must be applied about that axis for how many seconds?

Three objects,$A$ (a solid sphere),$B$ (a thin circular disk),and $C$ (a circular ring),each have the same mass $M$ and radius $R$. They all spin with the same angular speed $\omega$ about their own symmetry axes. The amounts of work $(W)$ required to bring them to rest would satisfy the relation:
