$A$ flywheel is an important part of a steam engine because it

One end of a straight uniform $1\; m$ long bar is pivoted on a horizontal table. It is released from rest when it makes an angle $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal (see figure). Its angular speed when it hits the table is given as $\sqrt{n}\; s^{-1},$ where $n$ is an integer. The value of $n$ is

$A$ flywheel rotates about an axis. Due to friction at the axis,it experiences an angular retardation proportional to its angular velocity. If its angular velocity falls to half while it makes $n$ rotations,how many more rotations will it make before coming to rest?

Fill in the blanks:
$(1)$ In rotational motion,the role played by ............ is analogous to the role played by mass in linear motion.
$(2)$ For a rigid body in rotational motion,if a particle at a distance of $10 \ cm$ from the fixed axis of rotation has an angular velocity of $10 \ rad/s$,then the linear velocity of a particle at a distance of $5 \ cm$ from the axis of rotation is ............

$A$ uniform circular disc of mass $1.5 \ kg$ and radius $0.5 \ m$ is initially at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface. Three forces of equal magnitude $F=0.5 \ N$ are applied simultaneously along the three sides of an equilateral triangle $XYZ$ with its vertices on the perimeter of the disc (see figure). One second after applying the forces,the angular speed of the disc in $\text{rad } s^{-1}$ is:
