$A$ solid cone is placed on a horizontal surface has height $h$,radius $R$ and apex angle $\theta$ as shown. If the gravitational potential energy of the cone does not change as the position of the cone is changed from figure $(A)$ to figure $(B)$,then,

  • A
    $\theta = {\sin ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{2}{3}} \right)$
  • B
    $\theta = \frac{\pi }{4}$
  • C
    $\frac{h}{R} = 1$
  • D
    $\frac{h}{R} = 2\sqrt 2$

$A$ circular disc of radius $R$ is removed from one end of a bigger circular disc of radius $2R$. The centre of mass of the new disc is at a distance $\alpha R$ from the centre of the bigger disc. The value of $\alpha$ is

The distance between the vertex and the centre of mass of a uniform solid planar circular segment of angular size $\theta$ and radius $R$ is given by

From a uniform circular disc of radius $2 \,cm$ (its centre of mass is at $O$), a circular portion of radius $1 \,cm$ is removed such that the shift in centre of mass is maximum. The disc is now rotated by an angle $\theta$ about an axis perpendicular to its plane and passing through $O$. If the magnitude of displacement of the new centre of mass is $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \,cm$, then the $\theta$ is (in $^{\circ}$)

The equilateral triangle $ABC$ is cut from a thin solid sheet of wood. $D, E$ and $F$ are the midpoints of its sides as shown and $G$ is the centre of the triangle. The moment of inertia of the triangle about an axis passing through $G$ and perpendicular to the plane of the triangle is $I_0$. If the smaller triangle $DEF$ is removed from $ABC$,the moment of inertia of the remaining figure about the same axis is $I$. Then
