Rotational and Circular Motion
235 QuestionsRotational and circular motion examines the dynamics of objects moving in circular paths or rotating around an axis. Key concepts include angular momentum, torque, moment of inertia, and centripetal force. This is a highly scoring topic in the physics section of competitive exams.

The minimum coefficient of friction for which the sphere will have pure rolling after some time, for $\theta ={ 45 }^{ 0 }$ is
A solid cylinder (SC),Hollow cylinder (HC)& solid sphere (SS)of same mass & radii are released simultaneously from the same height on an incline. The order in which they will reach the bottom is (From least time to most time order)
A solid homogeneous cylinder of height h and base radius r is kept vertically on a conveyer belt moving horizontally with an increasing velocity $v=a+{ bt }^{ 2 }$. If the cylinder is not allowed to slip then the time when the cylinder is about to topple, will be equal to
A solid cylinder of mass 2 kg rolls down an inclined plane from a height of 4 cm. Its rotational kinetic energy when it reaches the foot of the plane is (g = 10 ${ m/s }^{ 2 })$
A disc of radius R rolls on a horizontal surface with linear velocity $ \overrightarrow {v} = v \hat {i} $ and angular velocity $ \overrightarrow {\omega} = - \omega \hat k $ there is a particle P on the circumference of the disc which has velocity in vertical direction. the height of that particle from the ground will be
A disc of mass $m$ of radius $r$ is placed on a rough horizontal surface. A cue of mass $m$ hits the disc at a height $h$ from the axis passing through centre and parallel to the surface. The cue stop and falls down after impact. The disc starts pure rolling for
A uniform rigid rod has length $L$ and mass $m$. It lies on a horizontal smooth surface, and is rotated at a uniform angular velocity $\omega$ about a vertical axle passing through one of its ends. The force exerted by the axle on the rod will be
A disc and a sphere of same radius but different masses roll off on two inclined planes of the same altitude and length. Which one of the two objects gets to the bottom of the plane first?
(a) A child stands at the center of a turntable with his two arms outstretched. The turntable is set rotating with an angular speed of $40$ rev/min. How much is the angular speed of the child if he folds his hands back and thereby reduces his moment of inertia to $2/5$ times the initial value? Assume that the turntable rotates without friction. (b) Show that the child’s new kinetic energy of rotation is more than the initial kinetic energy of rotation. How do you account for this increase in kinetic energy?
When slightly different weights are placed on the two pans of a beam balance, the beam comes to rest at an angle with the horizontal. The beam is supported at a single point P by a pivot. Then which of the following statement(s) is/are true ?
When a ceiling fan is switched off, its angular velocity reduces by $50$% while it makes $36$ rotations. How many more rotations will it make before coming to rest? (Assume uniforms angular retardation)
Two discs having masses in the ratio $1:2$ and radii in the ratio $1:8$ roll down without slipping one by one from an inclined plane of height $h$. The ratio of their linear velocities on reaching the ground is
A stone of mass $m$ kg is whirled in a vertical circle of radius $20$ cm. The difference in the kinetic energies at the lowest and the topmost position is:
