Consider a uniform rod of mass M = 4m and length $$\ell $$ pivoted about its centre. A mass m moving with velocity v making angle $$\theta = {\pi \over 4}$$ to the rod's long axis collides with one end of the rod and sticks to it. The angular speed of the rod-mass system just after the collision is :

Mass per unit area of a circular disc of radius $$a$$ depends on the distance r from its centre as $$\sigma \left( r \right)$$ = A + Br . The moment of inertia of the disc about the axis, perpendicular to the plane and assing through its centre is:

The radius of gyration of a uniform rod of length $$l$$, about an axis passing through a point $${l \over 4}$$ away from the centre of the rod, and perpendicular to it, is :

As shown in the figure, a bob of mass m is tied by a massless string whose other end portion is wound on a fly wheel (disc) of radius r and mass m. When released from rest the bob starts falling vertically. When it has covered a distance of h, the angular speed of the wheel will be:
