A rigid body is rotating with variable angular velocity $(a -bt)$ at any instant of time $t.$ The total angle subtended by it before coming to rest will be ( $a$ and $b$ are constants)
$\frac{{(a - b)a}}{2}$
$\frac{{{a^2}}}{{2b}}$
$\frac{{{a^2} - {b^2}}}{{2b}}$
$\frac{{{a^2} - {b^2}}}{{2a}}$
The moment of inertia of uniform semicircular disc of mass $M$ and radius $r$ about a line perpendicular to the plane of the disc through the centre is
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 rotating 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
A rod $PQ$ of mass $M$ and length $L$ is hinged at end $P$. The rod is kept horizontal by a massless string tied to point $Q$ as shown in figure. When string is cut, the initial angular acceleration of the rod is
Two bodies of mass $1\,kg$ and $3\,kg$ have position vectors $\hat i\,\, + \,\,2\hat j\,\, + \,\,\hat k$ and $-\,3\hat i\,\, - \,\,2\hat j\,\, + \,\,\hat k$, respectively. The centre of mass of this system has a position vector
A thin wire of length $l$ and uniform linear mass density of $\rho $ is bent into a circular loop with centre $O$ and radius $r$ as shown in the figure. The moment of inertia of the loop about the axis $XX'$ is
