QAIPMT-2003-Ph-2743: NEET 2003 Physics - Class 11 AIPMT-2003-Ph-2743 Solution: A thin circular ring of mass M and radius r is rotating about…

A thin circular ring of mass M and radius r is rotating about its axis with a constant angular velocity ω\omega. Four objects each of mass m, are kept gently to the opposite ends of two perpendicular diameters of the ring. The angular velocity of the ring will be:

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Mω4m\frac{M\omega}{4m}
  • B MωM+4m\frac{M\omega}{M+4m}
  • C (M+4m)ωM\frac{(M+4m)\omega}{M}
  • D (M−4m)ωM+4m\frac{(M-4m)\omega}{M+4m}

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Applying conservation law of angular momentum, I 1 _ 1 = I 2 _ 2 I 2 = ( M r 2 ) + 4 ( m ) ( r 2 ) = ( M + 4 m ) r 2 (Taking _ 1 = _ and _ 1 = _ 1 ) _ M r 2 _ = ( M + 4 m ) r 2 _ 1 _ _ 1 = M _ M + 4 m
