A hoop of radius r and mass m rotating with an angular velocity \omega _{0}  is placed on a rough horizontal surface. The initial velocity of the centre of the hoop is zero. What will be the velociy of the centre of the hoop when it ceases to slip ?

 

 

  • Option 1)

    r\omega _{0}\;

  • Option 2)

    \frac{r\omega _{0}}{4}

  • Option 3)

    \frac{r\omega _{0}}{3}

  • Option 4)

    \frac{r\omega _{0}}{2}

As we have learned

Law of conservation of angular moment -

\vec{\tau }= \frac{\vec{dL}}

- wherein

If net torque is zero

i.e. \frac{\vec{dL}}= 0

\vec{L}= constant

angular momentum is conserved only when external torque is zero .

 

 

When loop ceases to slip V_{em}= rw ......(1)

angular momentum is conserved about point of contact P 

L_i = L_f

L_i = L of c.m + L about C.M 

 = 0 + Iw = Mr ^ 2 w_0

L_f =  L of cm + L about C.M 

= Mvr + (Mr^2)w = 2 Mvr (\because V_{cm}=rw )

\Rightarrow 2 M V_{cm} r = M r^2 w_0

\Rightarrow v_{cm }= \frac{w_0 r }{2}

 

 

 

 

 

 


Option 1)

r\omega _{0}\;

Option 2)

\frac{r\omega _{0}}{4}

Option 3)

\frac{r\omega _{0}}{3}

Option 4)

\frac{r\omega _{0}}{2}
