$A$ uniform rod is fixed to a rotating turntable so that its lower end is on the axis of the turntable and it makes an angle of $20^o$ to the vertical. (The rod is thus rotating with uniform angular velocity about a vertical axis passing through one end.) If the turntable is rotating clockwise as seen from above,what is the direction of the rod's angular momentum vector (calculated about its lower end)?

  • A
    vertically downwards
  • B
    down at $20^o$ to the horizontal
  • C
    up at $20^o$ to the horizontal
  • D
    vertically upwards

$A$ block of mass $m = 1 \, kg$ slides with velocity $v = 6 \, m/s$ on a frictionless horizontal surface and collides with a uniform vertical rod and sticks to it as shown. The rod is pivoted about $O$ and swings as a result of the collision,making an angle $\theta$ before momentarily coming to rest. If the rod has mass $M = 2 \, kg$ and length $l = 1 \, m$,the value of $\theta$ is approximately (Take $g = 10 \, m/s^2$) (in $^{\circ}$)

$A$,$B$,and $C$ are a disc,a solid sphere,and a spherical shell respectively,with the same radii $(R)$ and masses $(M)$. These bodies are placed as shown in the figure.
