A cylinder of mass M=2 kg and radius R=12 cm lies on a plank of the same mass as shown in the figure. The surface between plank and ground is smooth but there is friction between cylinder and plank. If the coefficient of friction between the cylinder and the plank is μ=0.4, then what maximum initial compression (in cm) can be given to the spring such that the cylinder moves without slipping with respect to the plank? [Given, k=200 N m-1]

The figure shows a system consisting of (i) a ring of outer radius 3R rolling clockwise without slipping on a horizontal surface with angular speed ω and (ii) an inner disc of radius 2R rotating anti-clockwise with angular speed ω2. The ring and disc are separated frictionless ball bearings. The system is in the x-z plane. The point P on the inner disc is at distance R from the origin O, where OP makes an angle of 30º with the horizontal. Then with respect to the horizontal surface,

A sphere S rolls without slipping, moving with a constant speed on a plank P. The friction between the upper surface of P and the sphere is sufficient to prevent slipping, while the lower surface of P is smooth and rests on the ground. Initially, P is fixed to the ground by a pin N. If N is suddenly removed,

A rigid body of radius R, either hollow or solid, lies on a smooth horizontal surface. The body is pulled by a horizontal force acting tangentially from the highest point. The distance travelled by the body in the time in which it makes one full rotation is the same, that it will make in one full rotation during pure rolling. The rigid body will be

A spool of mass M=3 kg and radius R=20 cm has an axle of radius r=10 cm around which a string is wrapped. The moment of inertia about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the spool and passing through the centre is MR22. If the coefficient of friction between the surface and the spool is 0.4 then the maximum tension which can be applied to the string for which the spool doesn't slip, is g=10 m s-2
