$A$ hoop of radius $r$ and mass $m$ rotating with an angular velocity $\omega_0$ is placed on a rough horizontal surface. The initial velocity of the centre of the hoop is zero. What will be the velocity of the centre of the hoop when it ceases to slip?

$A$ uniform rod is fixed to a rotating turntable so that its lower end is on the axis of the turntable and it makes an angle of $20^o$ to the vertical. (The rod is thus rotating with uniform angular velocity about a vertical axis passing through one end.) If the turntable is rotating clockwise as seen from above,is there a torque acting on it,and if so,in what direction?

$A$ metal sphere of radius $r$ and specific heat $S$ is rotated about an axis passing through its centre at a speed of $n$ rotations per second. It is suddenly stopped and $50 \%$ of its energy is used in increasing its temperature. Then,the rise in temperature of the sphere is

The position vectors of two $1 \ kg$ particles,$(A)$ and $(B),$ are given by $\overrightarrow{r}_{A} = (\alpha_1 t^2 \hat{i} + \alpha_2 t \hat{j} + \alpha_3 \hat{k}) \ m$ and $\vec{r}_B = (\beta_1 t \hat{i} + \beta_2 t^2 \hat{j} + \beta_3 t \hat{k}) \ m$,respectively. Given $\alpha_1 = 1 \ m/s^2, \alpha_2 = 3n \ m/s, \alpha_3 = 2 \ m, \beta_1 = 2 \ m/s, \beta_2 = -1 \ m/s^2, \beta_3 = 4p \ m/s$,where $t$ is time,$n$ and $p$ are constants. At $t = 1 \ s$,$|\overrightarrow{V}_{A}| = |\overrightarrow{V}_{B}|$ and the velocities $\overrightarrow{V}_{A}$ and $\overrightarrow{V}_{B}$ are orthogonal. At $t = 1 \ s$,the magnitude of angular momentum of particle $(A)$ with respect to particle $(B)$ is $\sqrt{L} \ kg \ m^2/s$. The value of $L$ is:

Three identical spherical shells,each of mass $m$ and radius $r$,are placed as shown in the figure. Consider an axis $XX'$ which touches two shells and passes through the diameter of the third shell. The moment of inertia of the system consisting of these three spherical shells about the $XX'$ axis is:
