Relationship between angular momentum L ...

Relationship between angular momentum L and kinetic energy E of a rigid body in pure rotation is

A

`E = L^(2)//2I`

B

`E^(2) = 2I//L`

C

`L = E^(2) //2I`

D

E = 2IL

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`E = (1)/(2) I omega^(2) " "[because L = I omega]`
`therefore" "E = (L^(2))/(2I)`

Two cylinders having radii 2R and R and moment of inertia 4I and I about their central axes are supported by axles perpendicular to their planes. The large cylinder is initially rotating clockwise with angular velocity omega_(0) . The small cylinder is moved to the right until it touches the large cylinder and is caused to rotate by the frictional force between the two. Eventually slipping ceases and the two cylinders rotate at constant rates in opposite directions.
