$A$ uniform thin cylindrical disk of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is attached to two identical massless springs of spring constant $k$ which are fixed to the wall as shown in the figure. The springs are attached to the axle of the disk symmetrically on either side at a distance $d$ from its centre. The axle is massless and both the springs and the axle are in a horizontal plane. The unstretched length of each spring is $L$. The disk is initially at its equilibrium position with its centre of mass $(CM)$ at a distance $L$ from the wall. The disk rolls without slipping with velocity $\vec{V}_0 = V_0 \hat{i}$. The coefficient of friction is $\mu$.

$(A) -kx$ $(B) -2kx$ $(C) -\frac{2kx}{3}$ $(D) -\frac{4kx}{3}$
$2.$ The centre of mass of the disk undergoes simple harmonic motion with angular frequency $\omega$ equal to
$(A) \sqrt{\frac{k}{M}}$ $(B) \sqrt{\frac{2k}{M}}$ $(C) \sqrt{\frac{2k}{3M}}$ $(D) \sqrt{\frac{4k}{3M}}$

$A$ solid sphere of mass $M$ and radius $R$ has a moment of inertia $I$ about its diameter. It is recast into a disc of thickness $t$ whose moment of inertia about an axis passing through its edge and perpendicular to its plane remains $I$. The radius of the disc will be:

The key feature of Bohr's theory of the spectrum of the hydrogen atom is the quantization of angular momentum when an electron is revolving around a proton. We will extend this to a general rotational motion to find the quantized rotational energy of a diatomic molecule,assuming it to be rigid. The rule to be applied is Bohr's quantization condition.
$1.$ $A$ diatomic molecule has a moment of inertia $I$. By Bohr's quantization condition,its rotational energy in the $n^{\text{th}}$ level $(n=1, 2, 3, \dots)$ is:
$(A) \frac{1}{n^2}\left(\frac{h^2}{8 \pi^2 I}\right)$ $(B) \frac{1}{n}\left(\frac{h^2}{8 \pi^2 I}\right)$ $(C) n\left(\frac{h^2}{8 \pi^2 I}\right)$ $(D) n^2\left(\frac{h^2}{8 \pi^2 I}\right)$
$2.$ It is found that the excitation frequency from the ground state $(n=1)$ to the first excited state $(n=2)$ of rotation for the $CO$ molecule is close to $\frac{4}{\pi} \times 10^{11} \text{ Hz}$. Then the moment of inertia of the $CO$ molecule about its centre of mass is close to (Take $h=2 \pi \times 10^{-34} \text{ Js}$):
$(A) 2.76 \times 10^{-46} \text{ kg m}^2$ $(B) 1.87 \times 10^{-46} \text{ kg m}^2$ $(C) 4.67 \times 10^{-47} \text{ kg m}^2$ $(D) 1.17 \times 10^{-47} \text{ kg m}^2$
$3.$ In a $CO$ molecule,the distance between $C$ (mass $= 12 \text{ a.m.u.}$) and $O$ (mass $= 16 \text{ a.m.u.}$),where $1 \text{ a.m.u.} = \frac{5}{3} \times 10^{-27} \text{ kg}$,is close to:
$(A) 2.4 \times 10^{-10} \text{ m}$ $(B) 1.9 \times 10^{-10} \text{ m}$ $(C) 1.3 \times 10^{-10} \text{ m}$ $(D) 4.4 \times 10^{-11} \text{ m}$
