An object of mass 8 kg is hanging from one end of a uniform rod CD of mass 2 kg and length 1 m pivoted at its end C on a vertical wall as shown in figure. It is supported by a cable AB such that the system is in equilibrium. The tension in the cable is (Take g = 10 m/s$$^2$$)
The torque of a force $$5 \hat{i}+3 \hat{j}-7 \hat{k}$$ about the origin is $$\tau$$. If the force acts on a particle whose position vector is $$2 i+2 j+k$$, then the value of $$\tau$$ will be
A solid cylinder and a solid sphere, having same mass $$M$$ and radius $$R$$, roll down the same inclined plane from top without slipping. They start from rest. The ratio of velocity of the solid cylinder to that of the solid sphere, with which they reach the ground, will be :
A spherical shell of 1 kg mass and radius R is rolling with angular speed $$\omega$$ on horizontal plane (as shown in figure). The magnitude of angular momentum of the shell about the origin O is $${a \over 3}$$ R2$$\omega$$. The value of a will be :
