A large horizontal turntable is rotating with constant angular speed `omega` in counterclockwise sense. A person standing at the centre, begins to walk eastward with a constant speed V relative to the table. Taking origin at the centre and X direction to be eastward calculate the maximum X co-ordinate of the person.

A disc is rotating with constant angular velocity omega in anticlockwise direction. An insect sitting at the centre (which is origin of our co-ordinate system) begins to crawl along a radius at time t = 0 with a constant speed V relative to the disc. At time t = 0 the velocity of the insect is along the X direction. (a) Write the position vector (vec(r)) of the insect at time ‘t’. (b) Write the velocity vector (vec(v)) of the insect at time ‘t’. (c) Show that the X component of the velocity of the insect become zero when the disc has rotated through an angle theta given by tan theta = (1)/(theta) .

A circular table rotates about a vertical axis with a constant angular speed omega . A circular pan rests on the turn table (with the centre coinciding with centre of table) and rotates with the table. The bottom of the pan is covered with a uniform small thick layer of ice placed at centre of pan. The ice starts melting. The angular speed of the turn table.

Two equal masses m are attached by a string. One mass lies at radial distance r from the centre of a horizontal turntable which rotates with constant angular velocity omega=2 rad s(1) , while the second hangs from the string inside the tumtable's hollow spindle (see fig.) The coefficient of static friction between the turntable and the mass lying on it is mu_(s)=0.5 . The maximum and minimum values of radius such that the mass lying on the turntable does not slide are r_("max")+r_("min") in meter is

A thin uniform rod, pivoted at O, is rotating in the horizontal plane with constatn angular speed omega , as shown in the figure. At time t = 0, a small insect starts from O and moves with constant sped v, with respect to the rod towards the other end. It reaches the end of the rod at t =T and stops. The angular speed of the system remains omega throughout. The magnitude of the torque (|vecpi|) about O, as a function of time is best represented by which plot?
