216.
If a flywheel makes $$120\,rev/min,$$ then its angular speed will be
A
$$8\,\pi \,rad/s$$
B
$$6\,\pi \,rad/s$$
C
$$4\,\pi \,rad/s$$
D
$$2\,\pi \,rad/s$$
Answer :
$$4\,\pi \,rad/s$$
Angular velocity of flywheel is given by $$\omega = 2\,\pi \nu $$
where, $$\nu $$ is number of revolutions per second or frequency of revolution
Here, $$\nu = 120\,rev/\min $$
$$\eqalign{
& \therefore \omega = \frac{{2\pi \times 120}}{{60}} \cr
& = 4\,\pi \,rad/s \cr} $$

Consider a body, shown in figure, consisting of two identical balls, each of mass $$M$$ connected by a light rigid rod. If an impulse $$J=MV$$ is imparted to the body at one of its ends, what would be its angular velocity?
A
$$\frac{V}{L}$$
B
$$\frac{{2V}}{L}$$
C
$$\frac{V}{{3L}}$$
D
$$\frac{V}{{4L}}$$
Answer :
$$\frac{V}{L}$$
Change in angular momentum of the system $$=$$ angular impulse given to the system about the centre of mass $${\left( {{\text{Angular momentum}}} \right)_f} - {\left( {{\text{Angular momentum}}} \right)_i}$$
$$ = Mv \times \frac{L}{2}.....(i)$$
Let the system starts rotating with the angular velocity $$\omega .$$
Moment of Inertia of the system about its axis of rotation [centre of mass of the system]
$$\eqalign{
& = M{\left( {\frac{L}{2}} \right)^2} + M{\left( {\frac{L}{2}} \right)^2} = \frac{{2M{L^2}}}{4} = \frac{{M{L^2}}}{2} \cr
& {\text{From, }}(i)\,\,\,\,I\omega - 0 = Mv\frac{L}{2} \cr
& \Rightarrow \omega = \frac{{Mv}}{I} \times \frac{L}{2} = \frac{{Mv}}{{\frac{{M{L^2}}}{2}}} \times \frac{L}{2} = \frac{v}{L} \cr} $$

In a carbon monoxide molecule, the carbon and the oxygen atoms are separated by a distance $$1.12 \times {10^{ - 10}}m.$$ The distance of the centre of mass from the carbon atom is
A
$$0.64 \times {10^{ - 10}}m$$
B
$$0.56 \times {10^{ - 10}}m$$
C
$$0.51 \times {10^{ - 10}}m$$
D
$$0.48 \times {10^{ - 10}}m$$
Answer :
$$0.64 \times {10^{ - 10}}m$$
Let the distance of the centre of mass from the carbon atom be $${x_{{\text{cm}}}}.$$
The mass of carbon, $${m_1} = 12\,amu$$
The mass of oxygen, $${m_2} = 16\,amu\,\,\left[ {{\text{atomic mass unit}}} \right]$$
From definition of centre of mass $${x_{CM}} = \frac{{{m_1}{x_1} + {m_2}{x_2}}}{{{m_1} + {m_2}}}$$
$$\eqalign{
& = \frac{{\left( {12\,amu} \right) \times 0 + \left( {16\,amu} \right) \times r}}{{12\,amu + 16\,amu}} \cr
& = \frac{{16}}{{28}}r = \frac{{16}}{{28}} \times 1.12 \times {10^{ - 10}}m \cr
& = 0.64 \times {10^{ - 10}}m \cr} $$

A circular disc of radius $$R$$ is removed from a bigger circular disc of radius $$2R$$ such that the circumferences of the discs coincide. The centre of mass of the new disc is $$\frac{\alpha }{R}$$ form the centre of the bigger disc. The value of $$\alpha $$ is-
A
$$\frac{1}{4}$$
B
$$\frac{1}{3}$$
C
$$\frac{1}{2}$$
D
$$\frac{1}{6}$$
Answer :
$$\frac{1}{3}$$
Let the mass per unit area be $$\sigma .$$
Then the mass of the complete disc $$ = \sigma \left[ {\pi {{\left( {2R} \right)}^2}} \right] = 4\pi \sigma {R^2}$$
The mass of the removed disc $$ = \sigma {\left( {\pi R} \right)^2} = \pi \sigma {R^2}$$
Let us consider the above situation to be a complete disc of radius $$2R$$ on which a disc of radius $$R$$ of negative mass is superimposed. Let $$O$$ be the origin. Then the above figure can be redrawn keeping in mind the concept of centre of mass as : $$\eqalign{
& {x_{c.\,m}} = \frac{{\left( {4\pi \sigma {R^2}} \right) \times 0 + \left( { - \pi \sigma {R^2}} \right)R}}{{4\pi \sigma {R^2} - \pi \sigma {R^2}}} \cr
& \therefore \,{x_{c.\,m}} = \frac{{ - \pi \sigma {R^2} \times R}}{{3\pi \sigma {R^2}}} \cr
& \therefore \,{x_{c.\,m}} = - \frac{R}{3}\,\,\,\, \Rightarrow \alpha = \frac{1}{3} \cr} $$
