Two persons of masses \(55~\text{kg}\) and \(65~\text{kg}\) respectively, are at the opposite ends of a boat. The length of the boat is \(3.0~\text{m}\) and weighs \(100~\text{kg}.\) The \(55~\text{kg}\) man walks up to the \(65~\text{kg}\) man and sits with him. If the boat is in still water, the centre of mass of the system shifts by:
1. \(3.0~\text{m}\)
2. \(2.3~\text{m}\)
3. zero
4. \(0.75~\text{m}\)
A solid cylinder of mass \(3\) kg is rolling on a horizontal surface with a velocity of \(4\) ms-1. It collides with a horizontal spring of force constant \(200\) Nm-1. The maximum compression produced in the spring will be:

2. \(0.6\) m
3. \(0.7\) m
4. \(0.2\) m
\(\mathrm{ABC}\) is an equilateral triangle with \(O\) as its centre. \(F_1,\) \(F_2,\) and \(F_3\) represent three forces acting along the sides \({AB},\) \({BC}\) and \({AC}\) respectively. If the total torque about \(O\) is zero, then the magnitude of \(F_3\) is:

| 3. | \(\dfrac{F_1+F_2}{2}\) | 4. | \(2F_1+F_2\) |
Two particles that are initially at rest, move towards each other under the action of their mutual attraction. If their speeds are \(v\) and \(2v\) at any instant, then the speed of the centre of mass of the system will be:
1. \(2v\)
2. \(0\)
3. \(1.5v\)
4. \(v\)
If \(\vec F\) is the force acting on a particle having position vector \(\vec r\) and \(\vec \tau\) be the torque of this force about the origin, then:

| 3. | \(\vec r\cdot\vec \tau=0\text{ and }\vec F\cdot\vec \tau=0\) |
| 4. | \(\vec r\cdot\vec \tau=0\text{ and }\vec F\cdot\vec \tau\neq0\) |
The ratio of the radii of gyration of a circular disc to that of a circular ring, each of the same mass and radius, around their respective axes is:

A wheel has an angular acceleration of \(3.0\) rad/s2 and an initial angular speed of \(2.0\) rad/s. In a time of \(2\) s, it has rotated through an angle (in radians) of:

A particle of mass \(m\) moves in the XY plane with a velocity \(v\) along the straight line AB. If the angular momentum of the particle with respect to the origin \(O\) is \(L_A\) when it is at \(A\) and \(L_B\) when it is at \(B,\) then:
