From a circular ring of mass and radius an arc corresponding to a sector is removed. The moment of inertia of the remaining part of the ring about an axis passing through the centre of the ring and perpendicular to the plane of the ring is times Then, the value of is


Important Questions on Rotation


Three solid sphere each of mass and diameter are stuck together such that the lines connecting the centres form an equilateral triangle of the side of length . The ratio of moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing the centroid and about the centre of the spheres and perpendicular to the plane of the triangle is

A particle of mass is fixed to one end of a light spring having force constant and unstretched length . The other end is fixed. The system is given an angular speed about the fixed end of the spring such that it rotates in a circle in gravity-free space. Then, the stretch in the spring is

As shown in the figure, a bob of mass is tied by a massless string whose other end portion is wound on a flywheel (disc) of radius and mass . When released from rest the bob starts falling vertically. When it has covered a distance of the angular speed of the wheel will be

A rigid massless rod of length has two masses attached at each end as shown in the figure. The rod is pivoted at point on the horizontal axis (see figure). When released from initial horizontal position, its instantaneous angular acceleration will be

A circular disc of mass and radius has two identical discs and of the same mass and radius attached rigidly at its opposite ends (see figure). The moment of inertia of the system about the axis passing through the centre of , as shown in the figure will be
