$A$ uniform rod $AB$ of mass $2 \ kg$ and length $30 \ cm$ is at rest on a smooth horizontal surface. An impulse of force $0.2 \ Ns$ is applied to end $B$. The time taken by the rod to turn through a right angle will be $\frac{\pi}{X} \ s$,where $X = \text{ . . . . . . }$.

$A$ thin rod of mass $M$ and length $a$ is free to rotate in a horizontal plane about a fixed vertical axis passing through point $O$. $A$ thin circular disc of mass $M$ and radius $a/4$ is pivoted on this rod with its center at a distance $a/4$ from the free end so that it can rotate freely about its vertical axis,as shown in the figure. Assume that both the rod and the disc have uniform density and they remain horizontal during the motion. An outside stationary observer finds the rod rotating with an angular velocity $\Omega$ and the disc rotating about its vertical axis with angular velocity $4\Omega$. The total angular momentum of the system about the point $O$ is $\left(\frac{Ma^2\Omega}{48}\right) n$. The value of $n$ is. . . . .

$A$ rod of mass $M$ and length $l$ is at rest on a smooth horizontal surface. $A$ particle of the same mass $M$ strikes one end of the rod with velocity $u$ perpendicular to the rod,elastically. Just after the collision,what is the kinetic energy of the upper half part of the rod?

Moment of Inertia of a thin uniform rod rotating about the perpendicular axis passing through its centre is $I$. If the same rod is bent into a ring and its moment of inertia about its diameter is $I^{\prime}$,then the ratio $\frac{I}{I^{\prime}}$ is

$ABC$ is an equilateral triangle with $O$ as its centre. $\vec F_1, \vec F_2$ and $\vec F_3$ represent three forces acting along the sides $AB, BC$ and $AC$ respectively. If the total torque about $O$ is zero,then the magnitude of $\vec F_3$ is

Two discs of moments of inertia $I_1$ and $I_2$ about their respective axes (normal to the disc and passing through the centre) and rotating with angular speeds $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ are brought into contact face to face with their axes of rotation coincident.
