Four spheres each of diameter $$2 a$$ and mass $$m$$ are placed in a way that their centers lie on the four corners of a square of side $$b$$. Moment of inertia of the system about an axis along one of the sides of the square is
If an energy of 684 J is needed to increase the speed of a flywheel from 180 rpm to 360 rpm, then find its moment of inertia.
A sphere of mass m is attached to a spring of spring constant k and is held in unstretched position over an inclined plane as shown in the figure. After letting the sphere go, find the maximum length by which the spring extends, given the sphere only rolls.
A girl of mass M stands on the rim of a frictionless merry-go-round of radius R and rotational inertia I, that is not moving. She throws a rock of mass m horizontally in a direction that is tangent to the outer edge of the merry-go-round. The speed of the rock, relative to the ground is v. Afterwards, the linear speed of the girl is
