To maintain a rotor at a uniform angular speed of $100\, rad\, s^{-1}$,an engine needs to transmit a torque of $100\, Nm$. The power of the engine is

Consider a body shown in the figure,consisting of two identical balls,each of mass $M$,connected by a light rigid rod of length $L$. If an impulse $J = MV$ (where $V$ is the linear velocity of a ball) is imparted to the body at one of its ends,what would be its angular velocity?

$A$ wheel of radius $0.4 \,m$ can rotate freely about its axis as shown in the figure. $A$ string is wrapped over its rim and a mass of $4 \,kg$ is hung. An angular acceleration of $8 \,rad \,s^{-2}$ is produced in it due to the torque. Then, the moment of inertia of the wheel is $(g = 10 \,m \,s^{-2})$.

$A$ constant torque acting on a uniform circular wheel changes its angular momentum from $A_0$ to $4 \,A_0$ in $4 \,s$. The magnitude of the torque is

$A$ wheel is rotating about an axis through its centre at $720$ revolutions per minute. It is acted on by a constant torque opposing its motion for $8$ seconds until it comes to rest. The number of revolutions made by the wheel in the $8$ seconds is:
