Important Questions on Rotational Motion

One end of a rod of length is fixed to a point on the circumference of a wheel of radius The other end is sliding freely along a straight channel passing through the center of the wheel as shown in the figure below. The wheel is rotating with a constant angular velocity (in radian per second) about
The speed of the sliding end when is


A solid disc of radius and mass rolls down without slipping on an inclined plane making an angle with the horizontal. The acceleration of the disc will be , where is _______. (Round off to the nearest integer)
( acceleration due to gravity and angle as shown in figure)


The angular speed of truck wheel is increased from to in seconds. The number of revolutions by the truck engine during this time is ______.
(Assuming the acceleration to be uniform).

A ball is rolling without slipping in a spherical shallow bowl (radius ) as shown in the figure and is executing simple harmonic motion. If the radius of the ball is doubled, then the time period of oscillation

A rigid massless rod of length has two masses attached at each end as shown in the figure. The rod is pivoted at point on the horizontal axis. When released from the initial horizontal position, its instantaneous angular acceleration will be









On a pulley of mass hangs a rope with two masses and tied at the ends as shown in the figure. The pulley rotates without any friction, whereas the friction between the rope and the pulley is large enough to prevent any slipping. Which of the following plots best represents the difference between the tensions in the rope on the two sides of the pulley as a function of the mass of the pulley?
