A circular disc A of radius \(r\) is made from an iron plate of thickness \(t\) and another circular disc B of radius \(4r\) is made from an iron plate of thickness \(t/4.\) The relation between the moments of inertia \(I_A\) and \(I_B\) is:

1. \(I_A>I_B\)
2. \(I_A=I_B\)
3. \(I_A<I_B\)
4. depends on the actual values of \(t\) and \(r\)

Let \(\vec{F}\) be a force acting on a particle having position vector \(\vec{r}\). Let \(\vec{\tau}\) be the torque of this force about the origin, then:

1. \(\vec{r} \cdot \vec{\tau}=0\) and \(\vec{F} \cdot \vec{\tau}=0\)
2. \(\vec{r} \cdot \vec{\tau}=0\) but \(\vec{F} \cdot \vec{\tau} \neq 0\)
3. \(\vec{r} \cdot \vec{\tau} \neq 0\) but \(\vec{F} \cdot \vec{\tau}=0\)

2. lighter piece
3. does not shift horizontally
4. depends on the vertical velocity at the time of breaking

Four \(2~\text{kg}\) masses are connected by \(\dfrac{1}{4}~\text{m}\) spokes to an axle as in figure given below. A force \(F\) of \(24~\text{N}\) acts on a lever \(\dfrac{1}{2}~\text{m}\) long to produce an angular acceleration \(\mathit{\alpha}\). The magnitude of \(\mathit{\alpha}\) (in rad/s2) is:

Given below are two statements: 
Assertion (A): The centre-of-mass of an isolated system of particles remains at rest if it is initially at rest.
Reason (R): Internal forces acting within a system cannot change the velocity of the centre-of-mass which is proportional to the total momentum of the system.
 
1. (A) is True but (R) is False.
2. (A) is False but (R) is True.
3. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
4. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

A wheel is subjected to uniform angular acceleration \(2~\text{rad/s}^2\) about its axis. Initially, its angular velocity is \(10~\text{rad/s}.\) In the first \(2~\text{s},\) it rotates through an angle \(\theta_{1},\), in the next \(2~\text{s} \) it rotates through an additional angle \({\theta}_{2}.\). The ratio of \(\dfrac{{{\theta}}_{2}}{{{\theta}}_{1}}\) is:
1. \(1/2\)
2. \(3/5\)
3. \(3/4\)
4. \(4/3\)

A uniform rod of length \(200~ \text{cm}\) and mass \(500~ \text g\) is balanced on a wedge placed at \(40~ \text{cm}\) mark. A mass of \(2~\text{kg}\) is suspended from the rod at \(20~ \text{cm}\) and another unknown mass \(m\) is suspended from the rod at \(160~\text{cm}\) mark as shown in the figure. What would be the value of \(m\) such that the rod is in equilibrium?
