Acceleration of the solid sphere while rolling down without slipping
\(a_{1}=\frac{g \sin \theta}{1+\frac{k^{2}}{r^{2}}}\)
Acceleration developed while slipping down \(a_{2}=g \sin \theta\)
\(\text { Required ratio } \frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}=\frac{g \sin \theta}{1+\frac{k^{2}}{r^{2}}} / g \sin \theta\)
\(\frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}=\frac{1}{1+\frac{k^{2}}{r^{2}}}\)
\(\text { For a solid sphere } \frac{k^{2}}{r^{2}}=\frac{2}{5}\)
\(\therefore \text { Ratio of accelerations } \frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}=\frac{1}{1+\frac{2}{5}}\)

\(=\frac{1.9 \times 900 \times 10^{30+6}}{2}┬а\)
\(\mathrm{~K} . \mathrm{E} =\mathrm{U}_{\mathrm{K}}=26.5 \times 10^{32} \mathrm{~J}┬а\)

When a raindrop gets detached from the cloud it experiences both downward gravitational force and upward air drag force. As it descends towards the Earth, the upward after drag force increases and after a certain time, the upward air drag force cancels the downward gravity. From then on the raindrop moves at constant velocity till it touches the surface of the Earth.
22.
(i) Newton's second law gives the correct explanation for the experiment on the inclined plane.
(ii) In normal cases, where friction is not negligible, once the object reaches the bottom of the inclined plane, it travels some distance and stops.
(iii) Note that it stops because there is a frictional force acting in the direction opposite to its velocity.
(iv) It is this frictional force that reduces the velocity of the object to zero and brings it to rest.
(v) As per Aristotle's idea, as soon as the body reaches the bottom of the plane, it can travel only a small distance and stops because there is no force acting on the object.
23.
(i) The average velocity is defined as ratio of the displacement vector to the corresponding time interval

\(\overrightarrow { { v }_{ 1 } } =5\hat { i } +6\hat { j } \)
\(\overrightarrow { { v }_{ 2 } } =2\hat { i } +3\hat { j } \)
\(\therefore \Delta \vec{r} =\vec{r}_{2}-\vec{r}_{1}=2 \hat{i}+3 \hat{j}-5 \hat{i}-6 \hat{j}┬а
\)
\(=-3 \hat{i}-3 \hat{j}┬а

33.
No, only that much amount of kinetic energy is lost as is necessary for the conservation of momentum.
34.
No, because equations of motions are applicable as long as the acceleration is uniform.
35.
As the disc is freely rotating, with the insect on it, the angular momentum of the system is conserved.
\(L=I\omega\)=constant

When the insect moves towards the center (from A to 0), the moment of inertia (I) increases. Thus, the angular velocity (co) increases. When it moves away from center (from 0 to B), the moment of inertia (I) decreases. Thus, the angular velocity decreases.
36.
Let R be the radius of the ring and M be the total mass of the complete ring.
Let m be the mass of the section removed from the ring then, mass of the incomplete ring is M-m
Let us introduce a positive integer (n), such that, \(n\theta=360^{0} \), or \(n=\frac{360^{0}}{\theta}\)

mass of incomplete ring=M - m
\(m=\frac{M}{360}\times \theta\)
∴ Mass of complete ring = \(M-\frac{M}{360}\times \theta\)
Mass of incomplete ring = \(M-\frac{M}{n}=M(\frac{n-1}{n})\)
For example, (a) when \(\theta=60^{0}; n=\frac{360^{0}}{60^{0}}=6\)
∴ n-1 =5
Mass of incomplete ring = \(\frac{5}{6}M\)
(b)when \(\theta=30^{0}; n=\frac{360^{0}}{30^{0}}=12\)
n-1=11
Mass of incomplete ring = \(\frac{11}{12}M\)
The moment of inertia of the incomplete ring is, I=\(M \frac{(n-1)}{n}R^{2}.\)

M1= 1 kg L1 = 1 m T1= 1s
M2= 1 kg L2 = 1 m T2= 1s
The dimensional formula for G is M-1L3 T-2
