Rotation 3 Question 12

18. Two thin circular discs of mass m and 4m, having radii of a and 2a, respectively, are rigidly fixed by a massless, rigid rod of length l=24a through their centers. This assembly is laid on a firm and flat surface and set rolling without slipping on the surface so that the angular speed about the axis of the rod is ω. The angular momentum of the entire assembly about the point "

(are) true?

(2016 Adv.)

(a) The magnitude of the z-component of L is 55ma2ω

(b) The magnitude of angular momentum of centre of mass of the assembly about the point O is 81ma2ω

(c) The centre of mass of the assembly rotates about the Z-axis with an angular speed of ω5

(d) The magnitude of angular momentum of the assembly about its centre of mass is 17ma2ω2

Answer:

Correct Answer: 18. (c, d)

Solution:

(a) Lz=LCMOcosθLDCMsinθ

=81245a2mω×24517ma2ω2×124=81×24ma2ω2517ma2ω224

(b) LCMO=(5m)9l5ω9l5=81ml2ω5

=81ml25×aωlLCMO=81mlaω5=8124a2mω5

(c) Velocity of point P:aω=1ω then ω=aω1= Angular velocity of C.M. w.r.t.

point O.

Angular velocity of CM w.r.t. Z-axis =ω0cosθ

ωCMz=aω1245=aω24a245

ωCMz=ω5 (d) LDCM=ma22ω+4m(2a)22ω=17ma2ω2
