This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Wheel is a rigid body. The particles that constitute the wheel do experience a centripetal acceleration directed towards the centre. This acceleration arises due to internal elastic forces which cancel out in pairs.
In a half wheel the distribution of mass about its centre of mass is not symmetrical, therefore the direction of angular momentum of the wheel does not coincide with the direction of its angular velocity. Hence an external torque is required to maintain the motion of the wheel.

no
The sum of torques about a certain point O
The sum of torques about any other O
The sum of torques about any other point O'
Here the second term need not vanish.
Sum of all torques about any point is zero.

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Consider a fig in which m is mass of sphere and R is the radius having h height above the floor
The sphere will roll without slipping when w=v/r where v is linear velocity and w is angular velocity .

By conservation of momentum
mv (h-R)=Iw=2/5mR2 (v/R)
mv (h-R)=2/5mvR
h-R=2/5R
so h = 7/5R .d sphere will roll here so no loss of energy.
Torque = F (h-R)
For torque=0 h=R sphere will have only translational motion. It would lose energy by friction.
b
the sphere will spin clockwise when t>0 so h>R
so c and a

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Moment of force 1= F (a)….anticlockwise
Moment of weight mg 2=mg (a/2)……. (clockwise)
Cube will not exhibit motion then 1 2
F=mg/2

Cube will rotate when 1 2
F>mg/2
At a/3 from point A then
mg
when F=mg/4 which is less then mg/3 there will be no motion.

The moment of inertia of the object I = r2 [sum of moment of inertia of each constituents particles]
All the mass in a cylinder lies at a distance R from the axis of symmetry but most of the mass of a solid sphere lies at a smaller distance than R.

When the vertical height of the objects is very small as compared to the earth's radius we call the objects small, otherwise it is extended. Building and ponds are small objects and deep lake and ocean are examples of extended objects.

This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Frictional force f is acting in the opposite direction of F . let the acceleration of centre of mass of disc be a then
F-f=Ma where M is the mass of the disc
fR= (1/2 MR2)
so fR= (1/2MR2) (a/R)
Ma=2f
From the above equation
F = F/3
F< =
f/3 <
F=3

This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
area of square = area of rectangular plate
C2=a b
(a) here bxRxS
(b) here a>c so IyR>IyS
(c) IzR-IzS +2ab= (a-b)2
(IzR-IzS)>0

This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
(a) Situation as given below

(b) F' =F=F'' where F' and F'' are external forces through support.
So Fnet=O

External torque = F (anticlockwise)
(c) Let w1 and w2 be the final angular velocities of smaller and bigger drum in both clockwise and anticlockwise . finally there will be no friction
hence Rw1=2Rw2
so
