- The rod PQ of length L = 2 m and uniformly distributed mass of M = 10 kg, is released from rest at the position shown in the figure. The ends slide along the friction less faces OP and OQ. Assume acceleration due to gravity, g = 10 m/s2. The mass moment of inertia of the rod about its centre of mass and an axis perpendicular to the plane of the figure is (ML2/12). At this instant, the magnitude of angular acceleration (in radian/s2) of the rod is ______.'

- A mobile phone has a small motor with an eccentric mass used for vibrator mode. The location of the eccentric mass on motor with respect to center of gravity (CG) of the mobile and the rest of the dimension of the mobile phone are shown. The mobile is kept on a flat horizontal surface.
Given in addition that the eccentric mass = 2 grams, eccentricity = 2.19 mm, mass of the mobile = 90 grams, g= 9.81 m/s2. Uniform speed of the motor in RPM for which the mobile will get just lifted off the ground at the end Q is approximately

When lifted from ground at Q
Reaction = 0
∴ taking moments about ‘p’ and equating to 0
.09 × .06 = mr ω2 × .09
9.01 × .09 × .06 = .002 × 2.19 × 10-3 × ω2 × .09
⇒ ω = 366.50 rad/s
= 3500 rpmCorrect Option: B
