$A$ thin uniform rod of mass $1 \ kg$ and length $1 \ m$ is hinged at one end to the ground. It originally stands vertically and is allowed to fall to the ground. If the rod hits the ground with angular speed $\omega$, then the correct statement is (Assume $g = 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$):

  • A
    $\omega = \sqrt{30} \ rad \ s^{-1}$
  • B
    $\omega = \sqrt{20} \ rad \ s^{-1}$
  • C
    $\omega = 5 \ rad \ s^{-1}$
  • D
    $\omega = 6 \ rad \ s^{-1}$

$A$ disc of mass $1\,kg$ and radius $R$ is free to rotate about a horizontal axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to the plane of the disc. $A$ body of the same mass as that of the disc is fixed at the highest point of the disc. Now the system is released. When the body comes to the lowest position,its angular speed will be $4 \sqrt{\frac{x}{3 R}} \text{ rad s}^{-1}$ where $x=$ (Given $g = 10 \text{ m s}^{-2}$)
