$A$ man is sitting in a smooth groove on a horizontal circular table at the edge by holding a rope joined to the centre. The moment of inertia of the table is $I$. The mass of the man is $M$. The man now pulls the rope so that he comes to the centre. The angular velocity of the table:

  • A
    must increase
  • B
    may increase
  • C
    must decrease
  • D
    may decrease

$A$ sphere of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is attached by a light rod of length $l$ to a point $P$. The sphere rolls without slipping on a circular track as shown. It is released from the horizontal position. The angular momentum of the system about $P$ when the rod becomes vertical is:

$A$ simple pendulum of length $\ell$ is displaced so that its taut string is horizontal and then released. $A$ uniform bar of length $L$ pivoted at one end is simultaneously released from its horizontal position. If their motions are synchronous (i.e.,they have the same angular velocity at any angle $\theta$ below the horizontal),what is the length $L$ of the bar?
