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:

3. 0.2
4. 2 k
Under the influence of a uniform magnetic field a charged particle is moving in a circle of radius R with constant speed v. The time period of the motion:
1. depends on v and not on R.
2. depends on both R and v.
3. is independent of both R and v.
4. Depends on R and not on v.
Two condensers, one of capacity \(C\) and the other of capacity \(\frac{C}2\) are connected to a \(V\) volt battery, as shown in the figure.

2. \({1 \over4}CV^2\)
3. \({3 \over4}CV^2\)
4. \({1 \over2}CV^2\)
A uniform rod \(AB\) of length \(l\) and mass \(m\) is free to rotate about point \(A\). The rod is released from rest in the horizontal position. Given that the moment of inertia of the rod about \(A\) is \(\dfrac{ml^2}{3}\) the initial angular acceleration of the rod will be:
