Two identical uniform rods of length `l` are joined to from `L` shaped frame, as shown is Fig. Locate the centre of mass of the frame.

Answer» Let `m` be the mass of each rod. In Fig. `B` is taken as origin. `BC` is X-axis and `BA` is Y-axis. As the rods are uniform, their individual centre of mass must be lying at there respective centres, say `P` and `Q`. Thus the system is equivalent to two point masses `m` each, at `P (l//2,0)` and `Q(0,l//2)`
`:. x_(cm) = (mxxl//2 + m xx0)/(m+m) = l//4`
and `y_(cm) = (m xx 0 + m xx l//2)/(m + m) = l//4`
Hence centre of mass of the system is at `O(l//4 , l//4)`.

An autmobile moves on road with a speed of `54 km//h`. The radius of its wheel is `0.45 m` and the moment of inertia of the wheel about its axis of rotation is `3 kg m^(2)`. If the vehicle is brought to rest in `15 s`, the magnitude of average torque tansmitted by its brakes to the wheel is :A. `2.86 kg m^(2) s^(-2)`B. `6.66 kg m^(2) s^(-2)`C. `8.58 kg m^(2) s^(-2)`D. `10.86 kg m^(2) s^(-2)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Here, `u = 54 km//h = 15 m//s, r = 0.45m`,
`I = 3kg m^(2), t = 15 sec, omega = 0`
Now `u = r omega_(0) or omega_(0)= (u)/(r ) = (15)/(0.45) = (100)/(3)`
As `omega = omega_(0) + alpha t`
`0 = (100)/(3) + (-alpha) (15)` [As force is retarding]
or `alpha = (100)/(54)`, Also `tau = I alpha`
`= 3 xx (100)/(45) = 6.66 kg m^(2) s^(-2)`

A man stands on a rotating platform, with his arms stretched horizontal holding a `5 kg` weight in each hand. The angular speed of the platform is `30` revolutions per minute. The man then brings his arms close to his body with the distance of each weight from the axis changing from `90 cm` to `20 cm`. moment of inertia of the man together with the platform may be taken to be constant and equal t `7.6 kg m^(2)`. (a) What is the his new angular speed ? (Neglect friction.) (b) Is kinetic energy conserved in the process ? If not, from where does the change come about ?

Answer» Here, `l_(1)=7.6+2xx5(0.9)^(2)=15.7 kg m^(2)`
`w_(1)=30 rpm`
`l_(2)=7.6+2xx5(0.2)2=8.0 kg m^(2)`
`w_(2)=?`
According to the principle of conservation of angular momentum, `l_(2)w_(2)=l_(1)w_(1)`
No, kinetic energy is not conserved in the process. In fact, as moment of inertia decreases, K.E. of rotation increases. This change comes about as work is done by the man in bringing his arms closer to his body.

When no external torque acts on a system, its angular momentum remains constant. Is the statement true ? Should kinetic energ of rotation of the system remain constant ? If yes, why , and if no, why not?

Answer» Yes, the statement is true. This is as per the principle of conservation of angular momentum, i.e.
When `tau = 0, L = I omega =` constant.
Now, `K.E`. of rotation `= (1)/(2)I omega^(2)`
`E = (I^(2)omega^(2))/(2I) = (L^(2))/(2I)`
As `L` is constant, therefore, `E prop (1)/(I)`
i.e., `K.E.` of rotation of the system shall NOT remain constant.
If moment of inertia `//` of the system increase, `K.E` of rotation `E` will decrease and vice-verse.
However, K.E. of rotation will remain constant if moment `//` of the body is maintained constant.

The bar is `2m` long. Calculate the distance `d` of the centre of gravity of the bar from its left end.

Answer» As it is clear from Fig., `theta_(1)=36.9^(@), theta_(2)=53.1^(@)`.
It `T_(1),T_(2)` are the tensions in the two strings, then for equilibrium along the horizontal,
`T_(1) sin theta_(1)=T_(2) sin theta_(2)`
or ` (T_(1))/(T_(2))=(sin theta_(2))/(sin theta_(1))=(sin 53.1^(@))/(sin36.9^(@))`
`=(0.7404)/(0.5477)=1.3523`
Let d be the distance of centre of gravity C of the bar from the left end.
For rotaional equilibrium about C,
`T_(1) cos theta_(1) xxd=T_(2) cos theta_(2) (2-d)`
`T_(1) cos 36.9^(@)xxd=T_(2) cos 53.1^(@) (2-d)`
`T_(1)xx0.8366 d= T_(2)xx0.6718 (2-d)`
Put `T_(1)=13523 T_(2)` and solve to get
d=0.745 m
`tau=I_(1)alpha_(1)=I_(2)alpha_(2)`
or ` (alpha_(1))/(alpha_(2))=(I_(2))/(I_(1))=((2//5)MR^(2))/(MR^(2))=(2)/(5)`
or ` alpha_(2)=(5)/(2) alpha_(1)`.
