Question
A uniform wheel of moment of inertia 'I' is pivoted on a horizontal axis through its centre so that its plane is vertical as shown in the figure. A small mass 'm' is stuck on the rim of the wheel as shown. The angular acceleration of the wheel when mass is at point A is αA and when mass is at point B is αB. Then,
Answer: Option C
:
C
The torque due to the weight of m at A is τAand that when it is at B is τB
⇒τBτA=IαBIαA=bcosθb=cosθ.
