$A$ rigid uniform bar $AB$ of length $L$ is slipping from its vertical position on a frictionless floor (as shown in the figure). At some instant of time,the angle made by the bar with the vertical is $\theta$. Which of the following statements about its motion is/are correct?
$[A]$ The midpoint of the bar will fall vertically downward
$[B]$ The trajectory of the point $A$ is a parabola

Two discs have moments of inertia $I_{1}$ and $I_{2}$ about their respective axes perpendicular to the plane and passing through the centre. They are rotating with angular speeds $\omega_{1}$ and $\omega_{2}$ respectively and are brought into contact face to face with their axes of rotation coaxial. The loss in kinetic energy of the system in the process is given by:

$A$ block of mass $M$ has a circular cut with a frictionless surface as shown. The block rests on the horizontal frictionless surface of a fixed table. Initially,the right edge of the block is at $x=0$,in a coordinate system fixed to the table. $A$ point mass $m$ is released from rest at the topmost point of the path as shown and it slides down. When the mass loses contact with the block,its position is $x$ and the velocity is $v$. At that instant,which of the following options is/are correct?
$[A]$ The $x$ component of displacement of the center of mass of the block $M$ is: $-\frac{m R}{M+m}$.
$[B]$ The position of the point mass is: $x=-\sqrt{2} \frac{mR}{M+m}$.
