6.System of Particles and Rotational Motion
hard
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 $\frac{a}{3} R^{2} \omega$. The value of a will be ..............

A
$2$
B
$3$
C
$5$
D
$4$
(JEE MAIN-2022)
Solution
$L _{0}=$ angular momentum of shell about $O$.
As shell is rolling
$\text { so } V _{ cm }=\omega R$
$L _{0}= mV _{ cm } R + I \omega$
$=1 \times \omega R \times R +\frac{2}{3} R ^{2} \omega$
$=\frac{5}{3} R ^{2} \omega$
$\text { so } a =5$
