$A$ ring of mass $m$ can freely slide along the massless curved rod as shown. At the lower most point,the curved path becomes vertical. If the whole system is released from rest,what is the velocity of the ring $(v)$ at the lowermost point just before touching the block $M$ (all surfaces are smooth)?

$A$ ladder of length $L$ is slipping with its ends against a vertical wall and a horizontal floor. At a certain moment,the speed of the end in contact with the horizontal floor is $v$ and the ladder makes an angle $\alpha = 30^o$ with the horizontal. If $dv/dt = 0$,then the angular acceleration of the ladder when $\alpha = 45^o$ is:

The plank in the figure moves a distance $100 \ mm$ to the right while the centre of mass of the sphere of radius $150 \ mm$ moves a distance $75 \ mm$ to the left. The angular displacement of the sphere (in radian) is (there is no slipping anywhere):-
