A) \[\left( \frac{M+m}{M} \right){{\omega }_{1}}\]
B) \[\left( \frac{M+m}{m} \right){{\omega }_{1}}\]
C) \[\left( \frac{M}{M+4m} \right){{\omega }_{1}}\]
D) \[\left( \frac{M}{M+2m} \right){{\omega }_{1}}\]
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Conservation of angular momentum gives \[\frac{1}{2}M{{R}^{2}}{{\omega }_{1}}=\left( \frac{1}{2}M{{R}^{2}}+2M{{R}^{2}} \right){{\omega }_{2}}\] \[(\because {{l}_{1}}{{\omega }_{1}}={{l}_{2}}{{\omega }_{2}}\] and \[{{l}_{1}}=\frac{1}{2}m{{R}^{2}}\], \[{{l}_{2}}=\frac{1}{2}m{{R}^{2}}+2m{{R}^{2}})\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\frac{1}{2}M{{R}^{2}}{{\omega }_{1}}=\frac{1}{2}{{R}^{2}}(M+4m){{\omega }_{2}}\] \[\therefore \] \[{{\omega }_{2}}=\left( \frac{M}{M+4m} \right){{\omega }_{1}}\]You need to login to perform this action.
