Two cylindrical hollow drums of radii R and 2R, and of a common height h, are rotating with angular velocities ω (anti-clockwise) and ω (clockwise), respectively. Their axes, fixed are parallel and in a horizontal plane separated by (3 ) R + δ . They are now brought in contact ( 0) δ → .
(a) Show the frictional forces just after contact.
(b) Identify forces and torques external to the system just after contact.
(c) What would be the ratio of final angular velocities when friction ceases

(a) Show the frictional forces just after contact.
(b) Identify forces and torques external to the system just after contact.
(c) What would be the ratio of final angular velocities when friction ceases
This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
(a) Situation as given below

(b) F' =F=F'' where F' and F'' are external forces through support.
So Fnet=O

External torque = F (anticlockwise)
(c) Let w1 and w2 be the final angular velocities of smaller and bigger drum in both cloc
