$A$ ring of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is rotating with angular speed $\omega$ about a fixed vertical axis passing through its centre $O$ with two point masses each of mass $\frac{M}{8}$ at rest at $O$. These masses can move radially outwards along two massless rods fixed on the ring as shown in the figure. At some instant,the angular speed of the system is $\frac{8}{9} \omega$ and one of the masses is at a distance of $\frac{3}{5} R$ from $O$. At this instant,the distance of the other mass from $O$ is

  • A
    $\frac{2}{3} R$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{3} R$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{5} R$
  • D
    $\frac{4}{5} R$

$A$ thin circular ring of mass $M$ and radius $r$ is rotating about its axis with a constant angular velocity $\omega$. Two objects,each of mass $m$,are attached gently to the opposite ends of a diameter of the ring. The ring will now rotate with an angular velocity:

$A$ circular stage is free to rotate about a vertical axis passing through its centre. $A$ tortoise is sitting at the corner of the stage. The stage is provided with an initial angular velocity $\omega_0$. If the tortoise starts moving along one chord at a constant speed with respect to the stage,then how does the angular velocity of the stage $\omega(t)$ vary with time $t$?

Consider a disc of mass $5 \,kg$ and radius $2 \,m$, rotating with an angular velocity of $10 \,rad/s$ about an axis perpendicular to the plane of rotation and passing through its center. An identical disc is placed gently over the rotating disc along the same axis. The energy dissipated so that both the discs continue to rotate together without slipping is . . . . . . $J$.
