Ratio of masses and radii of two circular rings are $1 : 2$ and $2 : 1$ respectively then ratio of moment of inertia will be
$1 : 4$
$2 : 1$
$4 : 1$
$\sqrt 2 : 1$
The centre of mass of a body
Radius of gyration of a body depends on
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
Two discs of moments of inertia $I_1$ and $I_2$ about their respective axes (normal to the disc and passing through the centre), and rotating with angular speed $\omega _1$ and $\omega _2$ are brought into contact face to face with their axes of rotation coincident. What is the loss in kinetic energy of the system in the process?
A uniform metre stick of mass $M$ is hinged at one end and supported in a horizontal direction by a string attached to the other end. What should be the initial angular acceleration of free end of the stick if the string is cut? (in $rad/sec^2$ )
