$A$ solid sphere of radius $R$ has a moment of inertia $I$ about its geometric axis. It is melted and recast into a disc of radius $r$ and thickness $t$. If the moment of inertia of this disc about an axis tangent to its edge and perpendicular to its plane is also $I$,find the value of $r$.

    $\frac{2}{\sqrt{15}} R$
  • B

$A$ rod of mass $M$ and length $L$ is lying on a horizontal frictionless surface. $A$ particle of mass $m$ travelling along the surface hits at one end of the rod with velocity $u$ in a direction perpendicular to the rod. The collision is completely elastic. After the collision, the particle comes to rest. The ratio of masses $\left(\frac{m}{M}\right)$ is $\frac{1}{x}$. The value of $x$ will be ..... .

$A$ $2 \, kg$ steel rod of length $0.6 \, m$ is clamped on a table vertically at its lower end and is free to rotate in a vertical plane. The upper end is pushed so that the rod falls under gravity. Ignoring the friction due to clamping at its lower end,the speed of the free end of the rod when it passes through its lowest position is $\ldots \ldots \ldots \ldots \, ms^{-1}$. (Take $g = 10 \, ms^{-2}$)

$A$ spherical rigid ball is released from rest and starts rolling down an inclined plane from height $h=7 \, m$,as shown in the figure. It hits a block at rest on the horizontal plane (assume elastic collision). If the mass of both the ball and the block is $m$ and the ball is rolling without sliding,then the speed of the block after collision is close to ............. $m/s$.

$A$ particle of mass $m$ moving horizontally with velocity $v_0$ strikes a smooth wedge of mass $M$,as shown in the figure. After the collision,the ball starts moving up the inclined face of the wedge and rises to a height $h$. When the particle has risen to a height $h$ on the wedge,choose the correct alternative$(s)$.

$A$ cube of side $a$ is moving with velocity $v$ on a smooth horizontal surface. It hits a linear raised obstacle $O$ on the horizontal surface (as shown in the figure). The angular speed of the block after hitting $O$ will be
