75- A uniform rod of mass 3m and length 2R is fitted in a uniform ring of mass m and radius R,
along a diameter of the ring. The radius of gyration, of the
ring + rod system about an axis passing from their CM and perpendicular to the plane of ring,
will be-----.

**76- A uniform disc of mass
m is placed on a horizontal smooth ground with
its plane vertical. A horizontal force P, parallel to the plane of the disc, is applied at height h
above the ground. Radius of the disc is R. If the disc is to roll without slip then the ratio h/R
(a) should be > 3 / 2 (b) should be s 3 / 2
(c) should be exactly 3 / 2 (d) equals 1

77- A uniformly dense solid C
sphere is released from a A
point A on an incline plane AB
making angle 45
0
from the
horizontal. Near the bottom B B
of the plane AB, it is smoothly joined with another plane BC making angle 60
0
from the
horizontal. Plane AB is enough rough to allow rolling of the sphere without slip but the plane BC
is smooth. Point A is at height H above the point B. The ball rises on the plane BC up to the
height H and then starts coming down. The ratio H / H =
(a) 2/5 (b) 6 / 2 (c) ( 3/2) (d) 5/7

80- In the previous problem ratio between the rotational and the translational kinetic energy of the
body is .

81- Two identical spheres A and B , are allowed to move simultaneously ( ,d gh le;) on an
inclined plane from same staring point . The sphere A rolls without slip, but B rolls with slipping. Mark
true / false against following statements:

(i) Sphere A experiences more friction force.
(ii) Sphere B reaches the ground earlier.
(iii) Sphere B reaches the ground with lesser kinetic energy than that of A
(iv) Sphere B reaches the ground with more translational kinetic energy than that of A.
