$A$ disc of mass $m$ and radius $r$ is free to rotate about its centre as shown in the figure. $A$ string is wrapped over its rim and a block of mass $m$ is attached to the free end of the string. The system is released from rest. The speed of the block as it descends through a height $h$ is:

  • A
    $\sqrt{2 g h}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\frac{2}{3} g h}$
  • C
    $2 \sqrt{\frac{g h}{3}}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3 g h}$

$A$ $3.0\ kg$ bobbin consists of a central cylinder of radius $5.0\ cm$ and two end plates each of radius $6.0\ cm$. It is placed on a slotted incline,where friction is sufficient to prevent sliding. $A$ block of mass $4.5\ kg$ is suspended from a cord wound around the bobbin and passing through the slot under the incline. If the bobbin is in static equilibrium,what is the angle of tilt $\theta$ of the incline?
