NTA Abhyas JEE Main2020PhysicsRotational MotionPractice
Consider a uniform disc in the x-y plane free to rotate about an axis parallel to the Z-axis as shown (passing through the centre). A force of 4N applied at 4 , 3 along y-axis, as shown produces an angular acceleration of 2 s - 2 . Locate the centre of mass of the disc if the mass of the disc is 2 kg.
Options
- A(1, 3)
- B(2, 3)
- C(0, 3)
- D(4, 3)
Correct answer
B. (2, 3)
Step-by-step solution
As τ = I α 4 R = 2 R 2 2   2 ⇒           R = 2   m Thus, COM is at (2, 3)
