A force is applied to a hollow spherical shell so that it acts through its centre. It causes an acceleration of \(3\) m/s2. If the same force is applied to the spherical shell, acting tangent to its surface, the acceleration will be: (Assuming no friction is available.)
1. \(3\) m/s2
2. \(2\) m/s2
3. zero
4. \(1\) m/s2

A pulley of radius \(1.5~\text m\) is rotated about its axis by a force, \(F=(12t-3t^{2})~\text N\) applied tangentially (while \(t\) is measured in seconds). If the moment of inertia of the pulley about its axis of rotation is \(4.5~\text{kg-m}^2,\) the number of rotations made by the pulley before its direction of motion is reversed, will be \(\dfrac K \pi\). The value of \(K\) is:
1. \(12\) 2. \(14\)
3. \(16\) 4. \(18\)

Two blocks \(A, B\) of mass \(1\) kg, \(2\) kg are connected by means of a light spring of spring constant \(k=10\) N/m. The system is placed at rest on a smooth horizontal plane, and a horizontal force \(F=2\) N is applied to the block \(B,\) as shown.
                 
The acceleration of the centre of mass of the system is:
1. \(\dfrac23\) m/s2 initially, but it varies with time.
2. \(\dfrac23\) m/s2 and is constant.
3. zero initially, but it reaches a maximum of \(1\) m/s2.
4. \(1\) m/s2 initially, but it decreases thereafter with time.

Given below are two statements: 
Assertion (A): If polar ice melts, days will be longer.
Reason (R): Moment of inertia increases and thus angular velocity decreases.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is true but (R) is false.
4. Both (A) and (R) are false.
