$A$ uniform thin wooden plank $AB$ of length $L$ and mass $M$ is kept on a table with its $B$ end slightly outside the edge of the table. When an impulse $J$ is given to the end $B$,the plank moves up with the centre of mass rising a distance $h$ from the surface of the table. Then,

  • A
    $h > 9 J^{2} / 8 M^{2} g$
  • B
    $h = J^{2} / 2 M^{2} g$
  • C
    $J^{2} / 2 M^{2} g < h < 9 J^{2} / 8 M^{2} g$
  • D
    $h < J^{2} / 2 M^{2} g$

$A$ mass $M = 40 \ kg$ is fixed at the very edge of a long plank of mass $80 \ kg$ and length $1 \ m$ which is pivoted such that it is in equilibrium. How far (approx.) from the pivot should a mass of $100 \ kg$ be attached so that the plank starts rotating with an angular acceleration of $1 \ rad/s^2$?

$A$ particle performs uniform circular motion with an angular momentum $L$. If the angular frequency of the particle is doubled and its kinetic energy is halved,what will be its new angular momentum?

The angular momentum of a rotating body is $L$. When the frequency of the rotating body is tripled and its kinetic energy is made one-third,the new angular momentum becomes:

$A$ pendulum consists of a bob of mass $m=0.1 \ kg$ and a massless inextensible string of length $L=1.0 \ m$. It is suspended from a fixed point at height $H=0.9 \ m$ above a frictionless horizontal floor. Initially,the bob of the pendulum is lying on the floor at rest vertically below the point of suspension. $A$ horizontal impulse $P=0.2 \ kg \cdot m/s$ is imparted to the bob at some instant. After the bob slides for some distance,the string becomes taut and the bob lifts off the floor. The magnitude of the angular momentum of the pendulum about the point of suspension just before the bob lifts off is $J \ kg \cdot m^2/s$. The kinetic energy of the pendulum just after the lift-off is $K$ Joules. $(1)$ The value of $J$ is. . . . . . $(2)$ The value of $K$ is. . . . . Give the answers of the questions $(1)$ and $(2)$.
