Acceleration of the disc, a=−μkg=−3ms−2.
Now, velocity of the centre of mass
v=u+at=18−3×2
⇒v=12ms−1
Now total kinetic energy during pure rolling(v=ωr) will become,
KE=21mv2+21Iω2=21mv2+212mr2r2v2
⇒KE=43mv2
=3×18=54J
A uniform disc of mass 0.5kg and radius r is projected with velocity 18ms−1 at t=0s on a rough horizontal surface. It starts off with a purely sliding motion at t=0s. After 2s it acquires a purely rolling motion (see figure). The total kinetic energy of the disc after 2s will be ______ J.
(given, coefficient of friction is 0.3 and g=10ms−2).

Net gravitational force at the center of a square is found to be $F_{1}$ when four particles having mass $M, 2 M, 3 M$ and $4 M$ are placed at the four corners of the square as shown in figure and it is $F_{2}$ when the positions of $3 M$ and $4 M$ are interchanged. The ratio $\frac{F_{1}}{F_{2}}$ is $\frac{\alpha}{\sqrt{5}}$. The value of $\alpha$ is $\_\_\_\_$. 
A particle of mass 2 kg is projected vertically upward with a speed of 30 m/s. The maximum height reached by the particle is (g = 10 m/s²):
Two projectiles are projected with the same initial velocities at the $15^\circ$ and $30^\circ$ with respect to the horizontal. The ratio of their ranges is $1:x$. The value of $x$ is:
In an experiment the values of two spring constants were measured as $k_{1}=(10 \pm 0.2) \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m}$ and $k_{2}=(20 \pm 0.3) \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m}$. If these springs are connected in parallel, then the percentage error in equivalent spring constant is :
The surface tension of a soap solution is $3.5 \times 10^{-2}$ N/m. The work required to increase the radius of a soap bubble from $1$ cm to $2$ cm is $\alpha \times 10^{-6}$ J. The value of $\alpha$ is _____. ($\pi = 22/7$)
