Q50 / 223 · NTA Abhyas (NEET) 2020 · Physics · Rotational Motion

A solid ball of radius 0.2 m and mass 1 kg lying at rest on a smooth horizontal surface is given an instantaneous impulse of 50 N s at point P as shown. The number of rotations made by the ball about its diameter before hitting the ground is

Figure

  • A
    62532π
  • B
    250032π
  • Correct answer
    C
    312532π
  • D
    125032π

Solution

Impulse = change in momentum

Along vertical

VV=50cos⁡30°1ms=253 m s-1

Along horizontal

VH=50cos⁡60°1ms=25 m s-1

Time of flight T=2VVg=53 s

Also ω=50×0.225mr2 rad s-1

=625 rad s-1

2πn=ω T

⇒n=ωT2π=312532π

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
