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

$A$ thin uniform bar of length $L$ and mass $8m$ lies on a smooth horizontal table. Two point masses $m$ and $2m$ move in the same horizontal plane from opposite sides of the bar with speeds $2v$ and $v$ respectively. The masses stick to the bar after collision at distances $L/3$ and $L/6$ respectively from the center of the bar. If the bar starts rotating about its center of mass as a result of the collision,the angular speed of the bar will be

Three identical spherical shells,each of mass $m$ and radius $r$,are placed as shown in the figure. Consider an axis $XX'$ which touches two shells and passes through the diameter of the third shell. The moment of inertia of the system consisting of these three spherical shells about the $XX'$ axis is:

$A$ thin rod of length '$L$' lies along the $x$-axis with its ends at $x = 0$ and $x = L$. Its linear mass density $\lambda$ varies with $x$ as $\lambda = k{\left( {\frac{x}{L}} \right)^n}$,where $n$ is a non-negative constant. If the position $x_{CM}$ of the center of mass of the rod is plotted against '$n$',which of the following graphs best approximates the dependence of $x_{CM}$ on $n$?

The figure shows a system consisting of $(i)$ a ring of outer radius $3R$ rolling clockwise without slipping on a horizontal surface with angular speed $\omega$ and $(ii)$ an inner disc of radius $2R$ rotating anti-clockwise with angular speed $\omega/2$. The ring and disc are separated by frictionless ball bearings. The system is in the $x-z$ plane. The point $P$ on the inner disc is at distance $R$ from the origin,where $OP$ makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. Then with respect to the horizontal surface,
$(A)$ the point $O$ has linear velocity $3R\omega\hat{i}$.
$(B)$ the point $P$ has a linear velocity $\frac{11}{4}R\omega\hat{i} + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}R\omega\hat{k}$.
$(C)$ the point $P$ has linear velocity $\frac{13}{4}R\omega\hat{i} - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}R\omega\hat{k}$.
$(D)$ The point $P$ has a linear velocity $(3 - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4})R\omega\hat{i} + \frac{1}{4}R\omega\hat{k}$.
