KCETKCET 2021System of Particles and Rotational Motion

Solution:

$ E =\frac{1}{2} mv _{ cm }^{2}\left[1+\frac{ K ^{2}}{ R ^{2}}\right] $
$\frac{ E }{ v _{ cm }^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}\left[1+\frac{ K ^{2}}{ R ^{2}}\right]$
From graph, $\frac{ E }{ v _{ cm }^{2}}=\frac{3}{4}$
$\frac{3}{4}=\frac{1}{2}\left[1+\frac{ K ^{2}}{ R ^{2}}\right] $
$\frac{3}{2}-1=\frac{ K ^{2}}{ R ^{2}} $
$\frac{ K ^{2}}{ R ^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}$
For disc, $I =\frac{ mR ^{2}}{2}$
$\frac{m R^{2}}{2}=m K^{2} $
$\frac{K^{2}}{R^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}$
