Answer Key : (b,c) -

(b,c)

In case of a wheel rolling on a horizontal plane, instantaneous axis of rotation of the wheel passes through (point of contact of wheel with plane). But at acceleration is vertically upwards. It means, acceleration at  has non-zero value. Hence, option (a) is incorrect

If the point is at a distance  from the instantaneous axis of rotation, then its velocity (relative to the axis) will be equal to . But by definition, every point lying on the instantaneous axis of rotation is at rest at that instant. Therefore, the resultant velocity of the particle becomes equal to that relative velocity . Hence, option (b) is correct

If distance of centre of mass of a body from the instantaneous axis of rotation is equal to  and if its moment of inertia parallel to instantaneous axis of rotation but passing through centre of mass is equal to then

Rotational KE of the body will be equal to  and translation KE of the body will be , where . Therefore, translation KE becomes equal to . Hence, the total KE becomes equal to

Hence, option (c) is correct

In case of a wheel rotating on a plane, instantaneous axis of rotation of the wheel passes through  which the centre of mass is at distance  from In that case, the moment of inertia about instantaneous axis of rotation is equal to  where is moment of inertia about the centroidal axis. Hence, moment of inertia of the wheel about the instantaneous axis of rotation is greater than the minimum possible value. Hence, option (d) is incorrect
