System Of Particles And Rotational Motion Ques 75
75. A ring of mass $m$ and radius $r$ rotates about an axis passing through its centre and perpendicular to its plane with angular velocity $\omega$. Its kinetic energy is
[1988]
(a) $\frac{1}{2} m r^{2} \omega^{2}$
(b) $m r \omega^{2}$
(c) $m r^{2} \omega^{2}$
(d) $\frac{1}{2} m r \omega^{2}$
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 75.(a)
Solution:
- (a) Kinetic energy $=\frac{1}{2} I \omega^{2}$
and for ring $I=m r^{2}$
Hence, $K E=\frac{1}{2} m r^{2} \omega^{2}$
