$A$ uniform rod is rotating in a gravity-free region with a certain constant angular velocity $\omega$. The variation of tensile stress $\sigma$ with distance $x$ from the axis of rotation is best represented by which of the following graphs?

$A$ uniform cylinder of mass $m$ can rotate freely about its own axis,which is horizontal. $A$ particle of mass $m_0$ hangs from the end of a light string wound around the cylinder,which does not slip over it. When the system is allowed to move,the acceleration of the descending mass will be

$A$ uniform solid cylinder of mass $M$ and radius $R$ rotates about a frictionless horizontal axle. Two similar masses $m$ are suspended with the help of two ropes wrapped around the cylinder. If the system is released from rest,then the acceleration of each mass will be

The pulley shown in the figure is made using a thin rim and two rods of length equal to the diameter of the rim. The rim and each rod have a mass of $M$. Two blocks of mass $M$ and $m$ are attached to two ends of a light string passing over the pulley, which is hinged to rotate freely in a vertical plane about its centre. The magnitude of the acceleration experienced by the blocks is . . . . . . (assume no slipping of the string on the pulley.)

What is a rigid body? Explain the difference between a rigid body and a solid body.

How many degrees of freedom does a rigid body have for a rotational motion about a fixed axis?
