A uniform thin rod of mass M and Length L is standing vertically along the y-axis on a smooth horizontal surface with its lower end at the origin (0,0). A slight disturbance at t=0 causes the lower end to slip on the smooth surface along the positive x-axis and the rod starts falling. The acceleration vector of centre of mass of the rod during its fall is: [R is reaction from surface]

In a vertical plane inside a smooth hollow thin tube a block of same mass as that of tube is released as shown in the figure. When it is slightly disturbed it moves towards right. By the time the block reaches the right end of the tube, displacement of the tube will be (where R is mean radius of tube). Assume that the tube remains in vertical plane.

Two men A and B are standing on a plank. B is at the middle of the plank and A is at the left end of the plank. The bottom surface of the plank is smooth. The system is initially at rest and masses are as shown in the figure. A and B start moving such that the position of B remains fixed with respect to ground and A meets B. Then the point where A meets B is located at

A small sphere of radius R is held against the inner surface of a larger sphere of radius 6R. The masses of large and small spheres are 4M and M respectively. This arrangement is placed on a horizontal table as shown. There is no friction between any surfaces of contact. The small sphere is now released. The coordinates of the centre of the large sphere when the smaller sphere reaches the other extreme position is :
