A circular platform is mounted on a frictionless vertical axle. Its radius is R = 2m and its moment of inertia about the axle is 200 kg m². Initially, it is at rest. A 50 kg man stands on the edge of the platform and begins to walk along the edge at a speed of 1 m s^–1 relative to the ground. The time taken by the man to complete one revolution is:
1. $\mathrm{\pi } \sec$                 
2. $\frac{3\mathrm{\pi }}{2}\sec$
3. $2\mathrm{\pi } \sec$               
4. $\frac{\mathrm{\pi }}{2}\sec$

The instantaneous angular position of a point on a rotating wheel is given by the equation \(\theta \left ( t \right )=2t^{3}-6t^{2}.\) The torque on the wheel becomes zero at:
1. \(t=0.5\) s
2. \(t=0.25\) s
3. \(t=2\) s
4. \(t=1\) s

A small mass attached to a string rotates on frictionless table top as shown. If the tension is the string is increased by pulling the string causing the radius of the circular motion to decrease by a factor of 2, the kinetic energy of the mass will

(d)decrease by a factor of 2

A circular disk of moment of inertia $I_t$ is rotating in a horizontal plane, about its symmetry axis, with a constant angular speed ${\omega }_i.$ Another disk of moment of inertia $I_b$ is dropped coaxially onto the rotation disk. Initially the second disk has zero angular speed. Eventually both the disks rotate with a constant angular speed ${\omega }_f.$ The energy lost by the initially rotating disc to friction is 

(1)$\frac{1}{2}\frac{I_b^2}{\left(I_t+I_b\right)}{\omega }_i^2$                                     

(2)$\frac{1}{2}\frac{I_t^2}{\left(I_t+I_b\right)}{\omega }_i^2$

(4)$\frac{1}{2}\frac{I_b{I}_t}{\left(I_t+I_b\right)}{\omega }_i^2$

Two particles which are initially at rest, move towards each other under the action of their mutual attraction.If their speeds are v and 2v at any instant, then the speed of centre of mass of the system will be

From a circular disc of radius R and mass 9M, a small disc of mass M and radius $\frac{\mathrm{R}}{3}$ is removed concentrically. The moment of inertia of the remaining disc about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the disc about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the disc and passing through its centre is -
