Assertion: A rigid disc rolls without slipping on a fixed rough horizontal surface with uniform angular velocity. Then the acceleration of the lowest point on the disc is zero.
Reason: For a rigid disc rolling without slipping on a fixed rough horizontal surface, the velocity of the lowest point on the disc is always zero.


Important Questions on Rotational Mechanics
Assertion: A uniform cubical block (of side ) undergoes translational motion on a smooth horizontal surface under action of horizontal force as shown. Under the given condition, the horizontal surface exerts normal reaction non-uniformly on lower surface of the block.
Reason: For the cubical block given in statement , the horizontal force has tendency to rotate the cube about its centre in clockwise sense. Hence, the lower right edge of cube presses the horizontal surface harder in comparison to the force exerted by lower left edge of cube on horizontal surface.







The moment of inertia of a uniform circular disc is maximum about an axis perpendicular to the disc and passing through,
