JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 6. system of particles and rotational motion

A bullet of mass \(10\, g\) and speed \(500\, m/s\) is fired into a door and gets embedded exactly at the centre of the door. The door is \(1.0\, m\) wide and weighs \(12\, kg\). It is hinged at one end and rotates about a vertical axis practically without friction . The angular speed of the door just after the bullet embeds into it will be

  1. A \(6.25\, rad/sec\)
  2. B \(0.625\, rad/sec\)
  3. C \(3.35\, rad/sec\)
  4. D \(0.335\, rad/sec\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(0.625\, rad/sec\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Angular momentum imparted by the bullet \(L = mv \times r \)\( = \left( {10 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}} \right) \times 500 \times \frac{1}{2} = 2.5\) \(I = \frac{{M{L^2}}}{3} = \frac{{12 \times {{1.0}^2}}}{3} = 4kg{m^2}\) \(L = I\omega \)…
