A circle disc has a tiny hole in it, at a distance `z` from its center. Its mass is `M` and radius `E(Rgtz)`. A horizontal shaft is passed through the hole and held fixed so that the disc can freely swing in the vertical plane. For small distrubance, the disc performs `SHM` whose time period is minimum for `z=`

A

`R/2`

B

`R/3`

C

`R/sqrt2`

A thinuniform circular disc of mass M and radius R is rotating in a horizontal plane about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its plane withan angular velocity omega .Another disc of same dimensions but of mass M/4 is placed gently onthe first disc co-axially, then the angular velocity of the system is

A horizontal disc is freely rotating about a vertcal axis passing through its centre at the rate of 125 r.p.m. A blob of wax of mass 50 gm falls on it and sticks to it at a distance of 10 cm from the axis. If the reslting frequency of rotation is 75 r.p.m, calculate the moment of inertia of the disc.
