In the fig. (a) half of the meter scale is made of wood while the other half of steel. The wooden part is pivoted at O.A force F is applied at the end of steel part. In figure (b) the steel part is pivoted at O' and the same force is applied at the wooden end:

A

More acceleration will be produced in (i)

B

more acceleration will be produced in (ii)

C

same acceleration will be produced in both conditions

D

information is incomplete

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
As `tau=I alpha`
`alpha prop 1/I` (`tau` is constant)
MI of figure (ii) is smaller hence acceleration is greater.

In the figure (i) half of the meter scale is made of wood while the other half, of steel. The wooden part is pivoted at O. A force F is applied at the end of steel part. In figure (ii) the steel part is pivoted at O and the same force is applied at the wooden end

In first figure a meter stick, half of which is wood and the other half steel is pivoted at the wooden end at A and a force is applied at the steel and at O . On second figure the stick is pivoted at the steel end at O and the same force is applied at the wooden end at A . The angular acceleration. .

The adjacent figure shows a non-uniform metre stick AB having the linear mass density variation lambda = lambda_(0) x , where lambda_(0) is a constant and x is the distance from end A, placed on a smooth horizontal surface. In the first experiment, the rod is pivoted at A and force F is applied perpendicular to the rod at the other end B and in the second experiment, the rod is pivoted at B and the force is applied perpendicular to the rod at the end A. If in the first case angular acceleration is alpha_(A) and in the second case it is alpha_(B) then

A wheel of diameter 2m is shown in Fig 1.28 with axle at O. At force F= 2N is applied at B in the direction shown in figure, Calculate the moment of force about (i) the centre O, and (ii) the point A.

When a force of 80 N is applied on a uniform steel wire, its free end elongates by 1.2 mm. Find the energy stored in the wire.

Figure a) shows a spring of force constant k clamped rigidly at once end and a mass m attached to its free end. A force F applied at the free end stretches the spring. Figure b) shows the same spring with both ends free and attached to a mass m at either end. Each end of the spring in figure is stretched by the same force F. (a) What is the maximum extension of the spring in the two cases ? (b) If the mass in figure and the two masses in figure are released free, what is the period of oscillation in each case?

A disc of mass m and radius R, is placed on a smooth text service fixed surface . Point A is the geometrical centre of the disc while point B is the centre of mass of the disc . The moment of inertia of the dics about an axis through its centre of mass and perpendicular to the plane of the figure is I .A constant force F is applied to the top of the disc . The acceleration of the centre A of the disc at the instant B is below A (on the same vertical line ) will be :
