$A$ uniform disc of mass $m_0$ rotates freely about a fixed horizontal axis passing through its centre. $A$ thin cotton pad is fixed to its rim,which can absorb water. The mass of water dripping onto the pad per unit time is $\mu$. After what time will the angular velocity of the disc get reduced to half its initial value?

  • A
    $\frac{2m_0}{\mu}$
  • B
    $\frac{3m_0}{\mu}$
  • C
    $\frac{m_0}{\mu}$
  • D
    $\frac{m_0}{2\mu}$

$A$ solid sphere with uniform density and radius $R$ is rotating initially with constant angular velocity $\omega_1$ about its diameter. After some time,it starts losing mass at a uniform rate,with no change in its shape. The angular velocity of the sphere when its radius becomes $R/2$ is $x\omega_1$. The value of $x$ is . . . . . . .

$A$ circular platform is mounted on a frictionless vertical axle. Its radius $R = 2\, m$ and its moment of inertia about the axle is $200\, kg\, m^2$. It is initially at rest. $A$ $50\, kg$ man stands on the edge of the platform and begins to walk along the edge at the speed of $1\, m/s$ relative to the ground. Time taken by the man to complete one revolution is

An ice block is placed at the center of a circular table. The system is rotated about the axis of the table with an angular velocity $\omega$. If the ice starts melting without evaporation,the rotational speed of the system will:

$A$ thin circular ring of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is rotating in a horizontal plane about an axis vertical to its plane with a constant angular velocity $\omega$. If two objects each of mass $m$ are attached gently to the opposite ends of a diameter of the ring,the ring will then rotate with an angular velocity:

$A$ circular disk of moment of inertia $I_t$ is rotating in a horizontal plane,about its symmetry axis,with a constant angular speed $\omega_i$. Another disk of moment of inertia $I_b$ is dropped coaxially onto the rotating disk. Initially,the second disk has zero angular speed. Eventually,both the disks rotate with a constant angular speed $\omega_f$. The energy lost by the initially rotating disk to friction is
