$A$ particle is moving in a circular orbit of radius $r_1$ with an angular velocity $\omega_1$. It jumps to another circular orbit of radius $r_2$ and attains an angular velocity $\omega_2$. If $r_2 = 0.5\, r_1$ and assuming that no external torque is applied to the system,then the angular velocity $\omega_2$ is given by:

  • A
    $\omega_2 = 4 \omega_1$
  • B
    $\omega_2 = 3 \omega_1$
  • C
    $\omega_2 = 2 \omega_1$
  • D
    $\omega_2 = \omega_1$

Two discs of moment of inertia $I_1$ and $I_2$ and angular speeds $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ are rotating along collinear axes passing through their centre of mass and perpendicular to their plane. If the two are made to rotate together along the same axis,the rotational $KE$ of the system will be:

$A$ disc is rotating with an angular velocity $\omega$. $A$ child sits on it gently. Which of the following quantities will be conserved?

$A$ solid cube of wood of side $2a$ and mass $M$ is resting on a horizontal surface as shown in the figure. The cube is free to rotate about a fixed axis $AB$. $A$ bullet of mass $m$ $(m << M)$ and speed $v$ is shot horizontally at the face opposite to $ABCD$ at a height of $4a/3$ from the surface to impart the cube an angular speed $\omega$. It strikes the face and embeds in the cube. Then,$\omega$ is close to (Note: The moment of inertia of the cube about an axis perpendicular to the face and passing through the centre of mass is $2Ma^2/3$).
