Solution & Explanation

### Related Formula The magnitude of the angular momentum L of a particle of mass m moving with velocity v is: L = m v d where: * d is the perpendicular distance from the axis of rotation (origin) to the line of motion of the particle. ### Core Logic Given parameters: * Mass, m = 5text kg * Velocity, v = 3sqrt2text ms^-1 * Line of motion: y = x + 4 implies x - y + 4 = 0 ### Step 1: Calculate Perpendicular Distance The perpendicular distance d from the origin (0,0) to the line Ax + By + C = 0 is: d = frac|A(0) + B(0) + C|sqrtA^2 + B^2 For the line x - y + 4 = 0: d = frac|4|sqrt1^2 + (-1)^2 = frac4sqrt2 = 2sqrt2text m ### Step 2: Calculate Angular Momentum Substitute the values into the angular momentum formula: L = m v d L = 5text kg times (3sqrt2text ms^-1) times (2sqrt2text m) L = 5 times 3 times 4 = 60text kg m^2texts^-1 Thus, the angular momentum of the particle about the origin is 60text kg m^2texts^-1. ### Pattern Recognition Instead of complicated vector cross products, find the perpendicular distance of the straight line from the origin using standard coordinate geometry. L = mvd is extremely fast and reliable. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Physics: System of Particles and Rotational Motion

Solution

### Related Formula I_textdisc = frac12 M R^2 [cite: 833] I = I_textcm + M d^2 quad text(Parallel Axis Theorem) [cite: 848] ### Core Logic Let the original mass density per unit area be sigma. Without any cavity, the moment of inertia is: [cite: 198, 833] I_1 = fracMR^22 [cite: 833] The mass of the removed small section scales directly with its cut-out area profile: [cite: 198, 834] m = fracMpi R^2 times pi left(fracR3right)^2 = fracM9 [cite: 198, 834, 844] The center of mass of the removed disk sits at a distance d = R - fracR3 = frac2R3 away from the primary center O[cite: 198, 205, 848]. Calculating its partial moment of inertia about O via the parallel axis theorem: [cite: 199, 848] I_2 = fracm r^22 + m d^2 = fracfracM9left(fracR3right)^22 + fracM9left(frac2R3 ight)^2 [cite: 848] I_2 = fracMR^2162 + frac4MR^281 = fracMR^2 + 8MR^2162 = frac9MR^2162 = fracMR^218 [cite: 848, 850] Subtracting the removed component from the original configuration: [cite: 851] I = I_1 - I_2 = fracMR^22 - fracMR^218 = frac9MR^2 - MR^218 = frac8MR^218 = frac49MR^2 [cite: 851] Matching this with frac4xMR^2, we find x = 9[cite: 200, 208, 851, 853]. ### Pattern Recognition For uniform planar surfaces, mass always scales squarely with linear dimension changes (r rightarrow fracr3 implies m rightarrow fracm9)[cite: 198, 834, 844]. Always apply the parallel axis theorem to bring the component values to a unified reference point before executing addition or subtraction[cite: 848, 851]. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Physics: System of Particles and Rotational Motion
Q4 jee_main_2025_24_jan_evening Rolling Motion
A solid sphere is rolling without slipping on a horizontal plane. The ratio of the linear kinetic energy of the centre of mass of the sphere and rotational kinetic energy is:
  • A. frac25
  • B. frac52
  • C. frac34
  • D. frac43

Solution

### Related Formula K_textlinear = frac12 m v_textcm^2 K_textrotational = frac12 I omega^2 ### Core Logic For a solid sphere, the moment of inertia about the center of mass is I = frac25mR^2. Since it rolls without slipping, the condition v_textcm = omega R holds. Substituting I and omega into the ratio: fracK_textlinearK_textrotational = fracfrac12 m v_textcm^2frac12 left(frac25mR^2 ight) left(fracv_textcmR ight)^2 fracK_textlinearK_textrotational = frac1frac25 = frac52 ### Pattern Recognition The ratio of translational to rotational kinetic energy for any rolling body is given by fracmR^2I_textcm. For a solid sphere, this becomes frac12/5 = frac52. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Physics: System of Particles and Rotational Motion
Q9 jee_main_2025_24_jan_evening Rolling on an Inclined Plane
A solid sphere and a hollow sphere of the same mass and of same radius are rolled on an inclined plane. Let the time taken to reach the bottom by the solid sphere and the hollow sphere be t_1 and t_2, respectively, then
  • A. t_1 < t_2
  • B. t_1 = t_2
  • C. t_1 = 2t_2
  • D. t_1 > t_2

Solution

### Related Formula t = sqrtfrac2ella_textcm a_textcm = fracg sin theta1 + fracI_textcmMR^2 ### Core Logic For a solid sphere: I_textsolid = frac25MR^2 implies a_1 = fracgsintheta1 + 2/5 = frac57gsintheta. For a hollow sphere: I_texthollow = frac23MR^2 implies a_2 = fracgsintheta1 + 2/3 = frac35gsintheta. Comparing accelerations: a_1 > a_2 Since acceleration of the solid sphere is greater, it takes less time to descend the incline: t_1 < t_2

### Related Formula The definition of angular momentum vector vecL relative to the origin is: vecL = vecr times vecp = m(vecr times vecv) In scalar form for a horizontal speed component at a maximum altitude H: L = m v_x H ### Core Logic At maximum height, the vertical speed component drops to zero, and the projectile travels entirely horizontally along the curve profile as shown in

: v_x = v_0 cos 45^circ = fracv_0sqrt2 H = fracv_0^2 sin^2 45^circ2g = fracv_0^24g ### Step 1: Calculating Magnitude and Vector Direction Evaluate the horizontal vector cross components: L = m left(fracv_0sqrt2 ight) left(fracv_0^24g ight) = fracmv_0^34sqrt2g Using the right-hand rule, vecr points into quadrant-1 while velocity points towards +hati. Therefore, vecr times vecv tracks clockwise, yielding a negative hatk orientation (along the negative z-axis). ### Pattern Recognition At peak height, always map vecL using m cdot v_textpeak cdot y_textmax. This scalar form simplifies the calculation significantly. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Physics: System of Particles and Rotational Motion
Q11 jee_main_2025_24_jan_morning Rolling Motion
A uniform solid cylinder of mass 'm' and radius 'r' rolls along an inclined rough plane of inclination 45^circ If it starts to roll from rest from the top of the plane then the linear acceleration of the cylinder axis will be :-
  • A. frac1sqrt2 g
  • B. frac13sqrt2 g
  • C. fracsqrt2 g3
  • D. sqrt2 g

Solution

### Related Formula The linear acceleration a for pure rolling motion down an incline profile is: a = fracgsintheta1 + fracImr^2 ### Core Logic For a uniform solid cylinder, the moment of inertia around its central axis is: I = frac12mr^2 implies fracImr^2 = frac12 ### Step 1: Calculating Acceleration Substitute theta = 45^circ and the cylinder inertial factor into the formula : a = fracgsin 45^circ1 + frac12 = fracfracgsqrt2frac32 a = frac2g3sqrt2 = fracsqrt2g3 ### Pattern Recognition Solid cylinder rolls with acceleration matching frac23 gsintheta. Since sin 45^circ = frac1sqrt2, this simplifies directly to fracsqrt2g3. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Physics: System of Particles and Rotational Motion
