Questions  

A uniform disk, a thin hoop (ring), and a uniform sphere, all with the same mass and same outer radius, are each free to rotate about a fixed axis through its centre. Assume the hoop is connected to the rotation axis by light spokes. With the objects starting from rest, identical forces are simultaneously applied to the rims, as shown. Rank the objects according to their angular momentum after a given time t, least to greatest.

A disc can rotate about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to the plane of the disc. Initially the disc is stationary and its moment of inertia about the axis is 4 Kg-m2. A torque is applied on the disc which varies with time according to the graph shown in figure. Then angular velocity of the disc at the end of 6th second is
