$A$ uniform rod $AB$ of mass $2 \ kg$ and length $30 \ cm$ is at rest on a smooth horizontal surface. An impulse of force $0.2 \ Ns$ is applied to end $B$. The time taken by the rod to turn through a right angle will be $\frac{\pi}{X} \ s$,where $X = \text{ . . . . . . }$.

$A$ thin uniform straight rod of mass $2 \, kg$ and length $1 \, m$ is free to rotate about its upper end when at rest. It receives an impulsive blow of $10 \, Ns$ at its lowest point,normal to its length as shown in the figure. The kinetic energy of the rod just after impact is ........ $J$.

$A$ uniform thin cylindrical disk of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is attached to two identical massless springs of spring constant $k$ which are fixed to the wall as shown in the figure. The springs are attached to the axle of the disk symmetrically on either side at a distance $d$ from its centre. The axle is massless and both the springs and the axle are in a horizontal plane. The unstretched length of each spring is $L$. The disk is initially at its equilibrium position with its centre of mass $(CM)$ at a distance $L$ from the wall. The disk rolls without slipping with velocity $\vec{V}_0 = V_0 \hat{i}$. The coefficient of friction is $\mu$.

$(A) -kx$ $(B) -2kx$ $(C) -\frac{2kx}{3}$ $(D) -\frac{4kx}{3}$
$2.$ The centre of mass of the disk undergoes simple harmonic motion with angular frequency $\omega$ equal to
$(A) \sqrt{\frac{k}{M}}$ $(B) \sqrt{\frac{2k}{M}}$ $(C) \sqrt{\frac{2k}{3M}}$ $(D) \sqrt{\frac{4k}{3M}}$

$(A) \mu g \sqrt{\frac{M}{k}}$ $(B) \mu g \sqrt{\frac{M}{2k}}$ $(C) \mu g \sqrt{\frac{3M}{k}}$ $(D) \mu g \sqrt{\frac{5M}{2k}}$

$A$ rod of mass $m$ and length $L$,pivoted at one of its ends,is hanging vertically. $A$ bullet of the same mass moving at speed $v$ strikes the rod horizontally at a distance $x$ from its pivoted end and gets embedded in it. The combined system now rotates with angular speed $\omega$ about the pivot. The maximum angular speed $\omega_M$ is achieved for $x=x_M$. Then
$(A)$ $\omega=\frac{3 v x}{ L ^2+3 x^2}$
$(B)$ $\omega=\frac{12 v x}{L^2+12 x^2}$
$(C)$ $x_M=\frac{L}{\sqrt{3}}$
$(D)$ $\omega_M=\frac{v}{2 L} \sqrt{3}$

Consider regular polygons with number of sides $n=3, 4, 5, \ldots$ as shown in the figure. The center of mass of all the polygons is at height $h$ from the ground. They roll on a horizontal surface about the leading vertex without slipping and sliding as depicted. The maximum increase in height of the locus of the center of mass for each polygon is $\Delta$. Then $\Delta$ depends on $n$ and $h$ as

The moment of inertia of a ring about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its plane is $I$. It is rotating with angular velocity $\omega$. Another identical ring is gently placed on it so that their centres coincide. If both rings are rotating about the same axis, then the loss in kinetic energy is
