As we learnt in

Analogue of second law of motion for pure rotation -

\vec{\tau }=I\, \alpha

- wherein

Torque equation can be applied only about two point

(i) centre of motion.

(ii) point which has zero velocity/acceleration.

 

 \tau=I \alpha

\alpha=a

t=\tau

t=Ia


Option 1)

t = Ia

This option is correct.

Option 2)

t = Iw

This option is incorrect.

Option 3)

I = tw

This option is incorrect.

Option 4)

a = Iw

This option is incorrect.
