In the following two exercises, choose the correct answer from among the given ones: The gravitational intensity at the centre of a hemispherical shell of uniform mass density has the direction indicated by the arrow (see Fig 8.12) (i) a, (ii) b, (iii) c, (iv) 0.
Prove the result that the velocity v of translation of a rolling body (like a ring, disc, cylinder or sphere) at the bottom of an inclined plane of a height h is given by `v^2=(2gh)/(1+k^2/R^2)` using dynamical consideration (i.e. by consideration of forces and torques). Note k is the radius of gyration of the body about its symmetry axis, and R is the radius of the body. The body starts from rest at the top of the
Torques of equal magnitude are applied to a hollow cylinder and a solid sphere, both having the same mass and radius. The cylinder is free to rotate about its standard axis of symmetry, and the sphere is free to rotate about an axis passing through its centre. Which of the two will acquire a greater angular speed after a given
Assertion: The centre of mass of a body must lie on the body. Reason: The centre of mass of a body does not lie at the geometric centre of
Choose the correct alternative : (a) Acceleration due to gravity increases/decreases with increasing altitude. (b) Acceleration due to gravity increases/decreases with increasing depth (assume the earth to be a sphere of uniform density). (c) Acceleration due to gravity is independent of mass of the earth/mass of the body. (d) The formula –G Mm(1/`r_2` – 1/`r_1`) is more/less accurate than the formula mg(`r_2 – r_1`) for the difference of potential energy between two points `r_2` and `r_1` distance away from the centre of the
