$A$ circular hoop of mass $m$ and radius $R$ rests flat on a horizontal frictionless surface. $A$ bullet,also of mass $m$ and moving with a velocity $v$,strikes the hoop and gets embedded in it. The thickness of the hoop is much smaller than $R$. The angular velocity with which the system rotates after the bullet strikes the hoop is

  • A
    $v/(4R)$
  • B
    $v/(3R)$
  • C
    $2v/(3R)$
  • D
    $3v/(4R)$

Two point-like objects of masses $20 \text{ g}$ and $30 \text{ g}$ are fixed at the two ends of a rigid massless rod of length $10 \text{ cm}$. This system is suspended vertically from a rigid ceiling using a thin wire attached to its center of mass,as shown in the figure. The resulting torsional pendulum undergoes small oscillations. The torsional constant of the wire is $1.2 \times 10^{-8} \text{ N m rad}^{-1}$. The angular frequency of the oscillations is $n \times 10^{-3} \text{ rad s}^{-1}$. The value of $n$ is

$A$ uniform rod of length $l$ is pivoted at one of its ends on a vertical shaft of negligible radius. When the shaft rotates at angular speed $\omega$,the rod makes an angle $\theta$ with it (see figure). To find $\theta$,equate the rate of change of angular momentum (direction going into the paper) $\frac{m l^{2}}{12} \omega^{2} \sin \theta \cos \theta$ about the centre of mass $(CM)$ to the torque provided by the horizontal and vertical forces $F_{H}$ and $F_{V}$ about the $CM$. The value of $\theta$ is then such that:

$ABC$ is an equilateral triangle with $O$ as its centre. $\vec F_1, \vec F_2$ and $\vec F_3$ represent three forces acting along the sides $AB, BC$ and $AC$ respectively. If the total torque about $O$ is zero,then the magnitude of $\vec F_3$ is

$A$ thin uniform rod of length $l$ and mass $m$ is swinging freely about a horizontal axis passing through its end. Its maximum angular speed is $\omega$. Its centre of mass rises to a maximum height of:
