$A$ uniform disc of radius $R$ and mass $M$ can rotate on a smooth axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its plane. $A$ force $F$ is applied on its rim as shown in the figure. What is the tangential acceleration of the rim?

As shown in the figure,a mass $m = 500 \ g$ hangs from the rim of a wheel of radius $r = 20 \ cm$. When released from rest,the mass falls $2.0 \ m$ in $8 \ s$. Then the moment of inertia of the wheel is .......... $kg \cdot m^2$. $(g = 10 \ m/s^2)$

The variation of angular position $\theta$ of a point on a rotating rigid body with time $t$ is shown in the figure. Is the body rotating clockwise or anti-clockwise?

$A$ uniformly thick wheel with moment of inertia $I$ and radius $R$ is free to rotate about its centre of mass (see fig). $A$ massless string is wrapped over its rim and two blocks of masses $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ $(m_{1} > m_{2})$ are attached to the ends of the string. The system is released from rest. The angular speed of the wheel when $m_{1}$ descends by a distance $h$ is
