A ring , a disc , a solid sphere and a hollow sphere with thin walls , all having the same mass but different radii, start together from rest at the top of an inclined plane and roll down without slipping. Then


Important Questions on Rigid Body Dynamics: Part 2


Inner and outer radii of a spool are and , respectively. thread is wound over its inner surface and spool is placed ' over a rough horizontal surface. Thread is pulled by a force as shown in figure. In case of pure rolling, which of the following statements are false?

A horizontal plane supports a fixed vertical cylinder of radius and a particle is attached to the cylinder by a horizontal thread as shown in figure. The particle initially rest on a horizontal plane. A horizontal velocity is imparted to the particle, normal to the threading during subsequent motion. Point out the false statements.


A stepped cylinder having mass and a radius of gyration of . The radii and are respectively and . A pull equal to is exerted on the rope attached to inner cylinder. The coefficient of static and dynamic friction between cylinder and ground are and respectively.

A plank with a uniform sphere placed on it rests on a smooth horizontal plane. The plank is pulled to the right by a constant force . If the sphere does not slip over the plank, then
