- Two identical plates P and Q , radiating as perfect black bodies, are kept in vacuum at constant absolute temperatures \(\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{P}}\) and \(\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{Q}}\), respectively, with \(\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{Q}}<\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{P}}\), as shown in Fig. 1. The radiated power transferred per unit area from P to Q is \(W_0\). Subsequently, two more plates, identical to P and Q, are introduced between P and Q, as shown in Fig. 2. Assume that heat transfer takes place only between adjacent plates. If the power transferred per unit area in the direction from P to Q (Fig. 2) in the steady state is \(W_S\), then the ratio \(\frac{W_0}{W_S}\) is ________.

- Paragraph :
One twirls a circular ring (of mass \(M\) and radius \(R\) ) near the tip of one's finger as shown in Figure 1 . In the process the finger never loses contact with the inner rim of the ring. The finger traces out the surface of a cone, shown by the dotted line. The radius of the path traced out by the point where the ring and the finger is in contact is \(r\). The finger rotates with an angular velocity \(\omega_{0}\). The rotating ring rolls without slipping on the outside of a smaller circle described by the point where the ring and the finger is in contact (Figure 2). The coefficient of friction between the ring and the finger is \(\mu\) and the acceleration due to gravity is \(g\).

Question :
The total kinetic energy of the ring isJEE Advanced 2017 Medium - The general motion of a rigid body can be considered to be a combination of (i) a motion of its centre of mass about an axis, and (ii) its motion about an instantaneous axis passing through the centre of mass.
These axes need not be stationary. Consider, for example, a thin uniform disc welded (rigidly fixed) horizontally at its rim to a massless, stick, as shown in the figure. When the disc-stick system is rotated about the origin on a horizontal frictionless plane with angular speed \(\omega\), the motion at any instant can be taken as a combination of (i) a rotation of the centre of mass of the disc about the \(z\)-axis and (ii) a rotation of the disc through an instantaneous vertical axis passing through its centre of mass (as is seen from the changed orientation of points \(P\) and \(Q\) ). Both these motions have the same angular speed \(\omega\) in this case
Now consider two similar systems as shown in the figure: Case
(a) the disc with its face vertical and parallel to \(x-z\) plane; Case
(b) the disc with its face making an angle of
\(45^{\circ}\) with \(x-y\) plane and its horizontal diameter parallel to \(x\)-axis. In both the cascs, the disc is welded at point \(\mathrm{P}\), and the systems are rotated with constant angular speed \(\omega\) about the \(z\) axis.
Question : Which of the following statements about the instantaneous axis (passing through the centre of mass) is correct?JEE Advanced 2012 Medium - A lamina is made by removing a small disc of diameter \(2 R\) from a bigger disc of uniform mass density and radius \(2 R\), as shown in the figure. The moment of inertia of this lamina about axes passing though \(O\) and \(P\) is \(I_{O}\) and \(I_{P}\) respectively. Both these axes are perpendicular to the plane of the lamina. The ratio \(I_{P} / I_{O}\) to the nearest integer is

A small block of mass \(M\) moves on a frictionless surface of an inclined plane, as shown in figure. The angle of the incline suddenly changes from \(60^{\circ}\) to \(30^{\circ}\) at point \(B\). The block is initially at rest at \(A\). Assume that collisions between the block and the incline are totally inelastic \(\left(g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2\right)\)
Question:
