A bob of mass m attached to an inextensible string of length l is suspended from vertical support.  The bob rotates in a horizontal circle with an angular speed $\mathrm{\omega }$ $\mathrm{rad}/\mathrm{s}$ about the vertical.  About the point of suspension.

1.	Angular momentum is conserved
2.	Angular momentum changes in magnitude but not in the direction
3.	Angular momentum changes in direction but not in magnitude
4.	Angular momentum changes both in direction and magnitude

In free space, a rifle of mass \(M\) shoots a bullet of mass \(m\) at a stationary block of mass \(M\) at a distance \(D\) away from it. When the bullet has moved through a distance \(d\) towards the block, the centre of mass of the bullet-block system is at a distance of:
1. \(\frac{D-d}{M+m}~\text{from the bullet}\)
2. \(\frac{md+ MD}{M+m}~\text{from the block}\)
3. \(\frac{2md+ MD}{M+m}~\text{from the block}\)
4. \(\frac{(D-d)M}{M+m}~\text{from the bullet}\)

Blocks A and B are resting on a smooth horizontal surface given equal speeds of 2 m/s in the opposite sense as shown in the figure.

A flywheel is in the form of a uniform circular disc of radius 1 m and mass 2 kg. The work which must be done on it to increase its frequency of rotation from 5 rev ${\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$ to 10 rev ${\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$ is approximately

1.  1.5 x ${10}^2$ J

2.  3.0 x ${10}^2$ J

3.  1.5 x ${10}^3$ J

4.  3.0 x ${10}^3$ J

Two discs are rotating about their axes, normal to the discs and passing through the centres of the discs. Disc D${}_1$ has 2 kg mass and 0.2 m radius and initial angular velocity of 50 rad s${}^{-1}$. Disc D${}_2$ has 4 kg mass, 0.1 m radius and initial angular velocity of 200 rad s${}^{-1}$. The two discs are brought in contact face to face, with their axes of rotation coincident. The final angular velocity (in rad.s${}^{-1}$) of the system is

1. 60

2. 100

3. 120

4. 40

A body rolls down an inclined plane without slipping. The fraction of total energy associated with its rotation will be

$1. {\mathrm{K}}^2+ {\mathrm{R}}^2$
$2. \frac{{\mathrm{K}}^2}{{\mathrm{R}}^2}$
$3. \frac{{\mathrm{K}}^2}{{\mathrm{K}}^2+ {\mathrm{R}}^2}$
$4. \frac{{\mathrm{R}}^2}{{\mathrm{K}}^2+ {\mathrm{R}}^2}$

Where k is radius of gyration of the body about an axis passing through centre of mass and R is the radius of the body. 

In the following figure, a weight W is attached to a string wrapped round a solid cylinder of mass M mounted on a frictionless horizontal axle at O.

A disc and a solid sphere of the same radius but different masses roll off on two inclined planes of the same altitude and length. Which one of the two objects gets to the bottom of the plane first?

A particle of mass \(m\) moves in the\(XY\) plane with a velocity of \(v\) along the straight line \(AB.\) If the angular momentum of the particle about the origin \(O\) is \(L_A\) when it is at \(A\) and \(L_B\) when it is at \(B,\) then:
