A thin uniform circular disc of mass M and radius R is rotating in a horizontal plane about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to its plane with an angular velocity $\omega$. Another disc of the same dimensions but of mass $\frac{1}{4}M$ is placed gently on the first disc co-axially. The angular velocity of the system will be:

1.  $\frac{2}{3}\mathrm{\omega }$

2.  $\frac{4}{5}\mathrm{\omega }$

3.  $\frac{3}{4}\mathrm{\omega }$

4.  $\frac{1}{3}\mathrm{\omega }$

Consider a system of two particles having masses ${\mathrm{m}}_1 \mathrm{and} {\mathrm{m}}_2$.

A flywheel is in the form of a uniform circular disc of radius 1 m and mass 2 kg. The work which must be done on it to increase its frequency of rotation from 5 rev ${\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$ to 10 rev ${\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$ is approximately

1.  1.5 x ${10}^2$ J

2.  3.0 x ${10}^2$ J

3.  1.5 x ${10}^3$ J

4.  3.0 x ${10}^3$ J

A constant torque acting on a uniform circular wheel changes its angular momentum from ${\mathrm{A}}_0$ to $4 {\mathrm{A}}_0$ in 4s. The magnitude of this torque is 

1. $\frac{3{\mathrm{A}}_0}{4}$

2. $4 {\mathrm{A}}_0$

3. ${\mathrm{A}}_0$

4. $12 {\mathrm{A}}_0$

Two discs are rotating about their axes, normal to the discs and passing through the centres of the discs. Disc D${}_1$ has 2 kg mass and 0.2 m radius and initial angular velocity of 50 rad s${}^{-1}$. Disc D${}_2$ has 4 kg mass, 0.1 m radius and initial angular velocity of 200 rad s${}^{-1}$. The two discs are brought in contact face to face, with their axes of rotation coincident. The final angular velocity (in rad.s${}^{-1}$) of the system is

1. 60

2. 100

3. 120

4. 40

A body rolls down an inclined plane without slipping. The fraction of total energy associated with its rotation will be

$1. {\mathrm{K}}^2+ {\mathrm{R}}^2$
$2. \frac{{\mathrm{K}}^2}{{\mathrm{R}}^2}$
$3. \frac{{\mathrm{K}}^2}{{\mathrm{K}}^2+ {\mathrm{R}}^2}$
$4. \frac{{\mathrm{R}}^2}{{\mathrm{K}}^2+ {\mathrm{R}}^2}$

Where k is radius of gyration of the body about an axis passing through centre of mass and R is the radius of the body. 

In the following figure, a weight W is attached to a string wrapped round a solid cylinder of mass M mounted on a frictionless horizontal axle at O.
