In the pulley system shown, if the radii of the bigger and smaller pulleys are and , respectively, and the acceleration of block is in the downward direction, then the acceleration of block will be:


Two steel balls of equal diameter are connected by a rigid bar of negligible weight, as shown, and are dropped in the horizontal position from height above the heavy steel and brass base plates. If the coefficient of restitution between the ball and steel base is and that between the other ball and the brass base is , the angular velocity of the bar immediately after rebound is,
(Assume the two impacts are simultaneous and take )

Two points and on a disc have velocities and , at some moment. Their directions make angles and , respectively with the line of separation, as shown in the figure. The angular velocity of disc is:

When a person throws a meter stick, it is found that the centre of the stick is moving with a speed of and left end of stick, with a speed of . Both points move vertically upwards at that moment. Then angular speed of the stick is

A ring of radius rolls without slipping on a rough horizontal surface with a constant velocity. The radius of curvature of the path followed by any particle of the ring at the highest point of its path will be:


A particle is revolving in a circle of radius , having centre at , with uniform angular velocity
