A small ball of mass m hits the cylinder which is hinged at top and free to rotate in vertical plane as shown in figure. Mass of cylinder is M. Linear momentum of system (ball+cylinder)

A

Remains conserved if y=R

B

Remains conserved if `y=(3)/(2)R`

C

Remains conserved if `y=(7)/(5)R`

D

Cannot be conserved for any value of y.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

muy`=mVy+(3)/(2)MR^(2)omega` where u is speed of ball before collision, V speed of ball after collision and `omega` is angular speed of cylinder after collision.
`m u=mV+Mromega(COM)`
`thereforey=(3R)/(2)`

A rectangular rigid fixed block has a long horizontal edge. A solid homogeneous cylinder of radus R is placed horizontally at rest its length parallel to the edge such that the exis of the cylinder and the endg of the block are in the same vertical plane as shown in the figure below. Ther is sufficinet friction present at the edge s that a very small displacement causes the cylinder to roll off the edge without slipping. Determine: (a) the angle theta_c through which the cylinder rotates before it leaves contact with the edge, (b) the speed of the centre of mass of the cylinder before leaving contact with the edge, and (c) the ratio of the translational to rotational kinetic energy of the cylinder when its centre of mass is in horizontal line with the edge.
