The moment of inertia of the pulley system as shown in the figure is The radii of bigger and smaller pulleys are respectively. As the system is released from rest, find the angular acceleration of the pulley system. (Assume that there is no slipping between string & pulley and string is light)


Important Questions on Laws of Motion

Four massless springs whose force constants are , respectively are attached to a mass kept on a frictionless plane (as shown in figure). If the mass is displaced in the horizontal direction, then the frequency of the system,

A fixed wedge with both surfaces inclined at to the horizontal as shown in the figure. A particle of mass is held on the smooth plane by a light string that passes over a smooth pulley and attached to a particle of mass which rests on the rough plane. The system is released from rest. Given that the acceleration of each particle is of magnitude then
the tension in the string is :

In the arrangement shown mass of the block and are and, respectively. Surface between and floor is smooth. The block is connected to block by means of a pulley. If the whole system is released then the minimum value of the mass of the block so that the block remains stationary with respect to is: (Coefficient of friction between and is and pulley is ideal)

A bead of mass is located on a parabolic wire, equation( ) with its axis vertical and vertex directed downward as shown in the figure. If the coefficient of friction is , the highest distance above the x-axis at which the particle will be in equilibrium.

In the arrangement shown tension in the string connecting and masses is

Two blocks of masses and are connected with a massless undeformed spring and placed over a plank moving with an acceleration as shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction between the blocks and platform is .

A plate of mass is moved with constant velocity against powder of dust particles moving with constant velocity in opposite direction stick to plate as shown. The density of the dust is and plate area is Find the force required to keep the plate moving uniformly.
