$A$ small particle of mass $m$ is projected at an angle $\theta$ with the $x$-axis with an initial velocity $v_{0}$ in the $x-y$ plane as shown in the figure. For time $t < \frac{v_{0} \sin \theta}{g}$,the angular momentum of the particle is (where $\hat{i}, \hat{j}$ and $\hat{k}$ are unit vectors along the $x, y$ and $z$ axes respectively):

  • A
    $-\frac{1}{2} mg v_{0} t^{2} \cos \theta \hat{k}$
  • B
    $-mg v_{0} t^{2} \cos \theta \hat{k}$
  • C
    $mg v_{0} t \cos \theta \hat{k}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2} mg v_{0} t^{2} \cos \theta \hat{k}$

The key feature of Bohr's theory of the spectrum of the hydrogen atom is the quantization of angular momentum when an electron is revolving around a proton. We will extend this to a general rotational motion to find the quantized rotational energy of a diatomic molecule,assuming it to be rigid. The rule to be applied is Bohr's quantization condition.
$1.$ $A$ diatomic molecule has a moment of inertia $I$. By Bohr's quantization condition,its rotational energy in the $n^{\text{th}}$ level $(n=1, 2, 3, \dots)$ is:
$(A) \frac{1}{n^2}\left(\frac{h^2}{8 \pi^2 I}\right)$ $(B) \frac{1}{n}\left(\frac{h^2}{8 \pi^2 I}\right)$ $(C) n\left(\frac{h^2}{8 \pi^2 I}\right)$ $(D) n^2\left(\frac{h^2}{8 \pi^2 I}\right)$
$2.$ It is found that the excitation frequency from the ground state $(n=1)$ to the first excited state $(n=2)$ of rotation for the $CO$ molecule is close to $\frac{4}{\pi} \times 10^{11} \text{ Hz}$. Then the moment of inertia of the $CO$ molecule about its centre of mass is close to (Take $h=2 \pi \times 10^{-34} \text{ Js}$):
$(A) 2.76 \times 10^{-46} \text{ kg m}^2$ $(B) 1.87 \times 10^{-46} \text{ kg m}^2$ $(C) 4.67 \times 10^{-47} \text{ kg m}^2$ $(D) 1.17 \times 10^{-47} \text{ kg m}^2$
$3.$ In a $CO$ molecule,the distance between $C$ (mass $= 12 \text{ a.m.u.}$) and $O$ (mass $= 16 \text{ a.m.u.}$),where $1 \text{ a.m.u.} = \frac{5}{3} \times 10^{-27} \text{ kg}$,is close to:
$(A) 2.4 \times 10^{-10} \text{ m}$ $(B) 1.9 \times 10^{-10} \text{ m}$ $(C) 1.3 \times 10^{-10} \text{ m}$ $(D) 4.4 \times 10^{-11} \text{ m}$

$A$ particle starts from the point $(0\,m, 8\,m)$ and moves with a uniform velocity of $3\, \hat{i} \,m/s$. After $5\,s$,the angular velocity of the particle about the origin will be:

$A$ spherical rigid ball is released from rest and starts rolling down an inclined plane from height $h=7 \, m$,as shown in the figure. It hits a block at rest on the horizontal plane (assume elastic collision). If the mass of both the ball and the block is $m$ and the ball is rolling without sliding,then the speed of the block after collision is close to ............. $m/s$.

Seven identical circular planar disks,each of mass $M$ and radius $R$,are welded symmetrically as shown. The moment of inertia of the arrangement about the axis normal to the plane and passing through the point $P$ is:
