Q1medium

A solid cylinder of mass MM and radius RR rolls without slipping down an inclined plane of angle hetaheta. The acceleration of its center of mass is:

Q2easy

A uniform rod of mass MM and length LL is pivoted at one end and allowed to swing freely. Its moment of inertia about the pivot is:

Q3medium

An ice skater is spinning with an angular velocity of omega1=10,rad/somega_1 = 10,\text{rad/s} with her arms outstretched, having a moment of inertia I1=6,kg m2I_1 = 6,\text{kg m}^2. She then pulls her arms in, reducing her moment of inertia to I2=2,kg m2I_2 = 2,\text{kg m}^2. What is her new angular velocity omega2omega_2?

Q4easy

A particle of mass mm is moving in a circular path of radius rr with a constant speed vv. The magnitude of its angular momentum about the center of the circle is:

Q5medium

A uniform circular disc of mass MM and radius RR is rotating about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to its plane with angular velocity omegaomega. If another identical disc is gently placed on the first disc, and they rotate together, what is the new angular velocity of the combined system?

Q6medium

Three particles, each of mass mm, are placed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle of side length aa. The moment of inertia of this system about an axis passing through one vertex and perpendicular to the plane of the triangle is:
