JEE MAIN - Physics (2019 - 9th April Evening Slot - No. 18)

Moment of inertia of a body about a given axis is 1.5 kg m2. Initially the body is at rest. In order to produce a rotational kinetic energy of 1200 J, the angular accleration of 20 rad/s2 must be applied about the axis for a duration of :-
2.5 s
3 s
5s
2 s

Explanation

KE = $${1 \over 2}I{\omega ^2} = 1200$$ (given)

$$ \Rightarrow \omega = 40\,rad/s$$

$$ \Rightarrow \omega = {\omega _0} + \alpha t$$

$$ \Rightarrow 40 = 0 + (20)t$$

$$ \Rightarrow t = 2\,\sec $$
