$A$ uniform rod of mass $M$ and length $L$ is pivoted at one end and is free to rotate in a vertical plane. The rod is released from rest in a horizontal position. What is the angular velocity of the rod when it reaches the vertical position?

  • A
    $\sqrt{\frac{3g}{L}}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\frac{2g}{L}}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{\frac{6g}{L}}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{\frac{g}{L}}$

$A$ thin uniform rod $AB$ of mass $m$ and length $l$ is hinged at one end $A$ to the ground level. Initially,the rod stands vertically and is allowed to fall freely to the ground in the vertical plane. The angular velocity of the rod when its end $B$ strikes the ground is ($g$ = acceleration due to gravity).

To maintain a rotor at a uniform angular speed of $200 \; rad \; s^{-1}$,an engine needs to transmit a torque of $180 \; N \; m$. What is the power required by the engine (in $; kW$)? (Note: uniform angular velocity in the absence of friction implies zero torque. In practice,applied torque is needed to counter frictional torque). Assume that the engine is $100 \%$ efficient.

Three objects,$A$ (a solid sphere),$B$ (a thin circular disk),and $C$ (a circular ring),each have the same mass $M$ and radius $R$. They all spin with the same angular speed $\omega$ about their own symmetry axes. The amounts of work $(W)$ required to bring them to rest would satisfy the relation:

$A$ wheel is rotating with an angular speed of $20\ rad/s$. It is stopped to rest by applying a constant torque in $4\ s$. If the moment of inertia of the wheel about its axis is $0.20\ kg\cdot m^2$,then the work done by the torque in two seconds will be .......... $J$.

The $M.I.$ of a body about the given axis is $1.2 \, kg \cdot m^2$ and initially the body is at rest. In order to produce a rotational kinetic energy of $1500 \, J$,an angular acceleration of $25 \, rad/s^2$ must be applied about that axis for a duration of ........ $s$.
