Most Important Selected Qs for JEE AdvancedPhysicsRotational Motion
A rod bent at right angle along its centre line, is placed on a rough horizontal fixed cylinder of radius R as shown in figure. Mass of rod is 2 m and rod is in equilibrium. Assume that friction force on rod at A and B are equal in magnitde.
Options
- ANormal force applied by cylinder on rod at A is 3 mg / 2 .
- BNormal force applied by cylinder on rod at B must be zero.
- CFriction force acting on rod at B is upward.
- DNormal force applied by cylinder on rod at A is mg .
Correct answer
A. Normal force applied by cylinder on rod at A is 3 mg / 2 .
