Q30 / 122 · NTA Abhyas (JEE Main) 2020 · Physics · Rotational Motion
A spool of mass and radius lies on an inclined plane as shown in figure. A light thread is wound around the connecting tube of the spool and its free end carries a weight of mass . The value of so that system is in equilibrium is


- Correct answerA
- B
- C
- D
Solution
Equilibrium of give
( = Tension in string)
Net torque about point of contact of the spool should be
zero. Hence,
or
or
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
