$A$ 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:

  • A
    $\frac{4 R}{\sqrt{11}}$
  • B
    $\frac{3 R}{4}$
  • C
    $\frac{2 R}{\sqrt{15}}$
  • D
    $\frac{2 R}{3}$

$A$ simple pendulum of length $\ell$ is displaced so that its taut string is horizontal and then released. $A$ uniform bar of length $L$ pivoted at one end is simultaneously released from its horizontal position. If their motions are synchronous (i.e.,they have the same angular velocity at any angle $\theta$ below the horizontal), what is the length $L$ of the bar?

$A$ uniform rod is fixed to a rotating turntable so that its lower end is on the axis of the turntable and it makes an angle of $20^o$ to the vertical. (The rod is thus rotating with uniform angular velocity about a vertical axis passing through one end.) If the turntable is rotating clockwise as seen from above,is there a torque acting on it,and if so,in what direction?

$A$ uniform cube of mass $m$ and side $a$ is placed on a frictionless horizontal surface. $A$ vertical force $F$ is applied to the edge as shown in the figure. Match the following (most appropriate choice):
$(a)$ $\frac{mg}{4} < F < \frac{mg}{2}$ $(i)$ Cube will move up
$(b)$ $F > \frac{mg}{2}$ $(ii)$ Cube will not exhibit motion
$(c)$ $F > mg$ $(iii)$ Cube will begin to rotate about $A$
$(d)$ $F = \frac{mg}{4}$ $(iv)$ Normal reaction effectively at $a/3$ from $A$,no motion

$A$ thin rod of length '$L$' lies along the $x$-axis with its ends at $x = 0$ and $x = L$. Its linear mass density $\lambda$ varies with $x$ as $\lambda = k{\left( {\frac{x}{L}} \right)^n}$,where $n$ is a non-negative constant. If the position $x_{CM}$ of the center of mass of the rod is plotted against '$n$',which of the following graphs best approximates the dependence of $x_{CM}$ on $n$?

$A$ ring of mass $m = 1 \ kg$ and radius $R = 1.25 \ m$ is kept on a rough horizontal ground. $A$ small body of same mass $m = 1 \ kg$ is stuck to the top of the ring. When it is given a slight push forward,the ring starts rolling purely on the ground. What is the maximum speed of the centre of the ring (in $m/s$)?
