A pulley of radius 2 m is rotated about its axis by a force F=20t-5t2 Newton (where, t is measured in seconds) applied tangentially. If the moment of inertia of the pulley about its axis of rotation is 10 kgm2, the number of rotations made by the pulley before its direction of motion is reversed, is

A roller is made by joining together two cones at their vertices 0. It is kept on two rails AB and CD which are placed asymmetrically (see figure), with its axis perpendicular to CD and its centre O at the centre of line joining AB and CD (see figure). It is given a light push so that it starts rolling with its centre O moving parallel to CD in the direction shown. As it moves, the roller will tend to

A slender uniform rod of mass M and length l is pivoted at one end so that it can rotate in a vertical plane (see figure). There is negligible friction at the pivot. The free end is held vertically above the pivot and then released. the angular acceleration of the rod when it makes an angle θ with the vertical is
