The end \(B\) of the rod is rigidly attached to a point on a uniform ring. The ring has centre \(O\), mass \(4 m\) and radius \(\frac { 1 } { 2 } a\). The ring and the rod are in the same vertical plane. The line \(O B A\), extended, passes through the centre of the spherical shell. \(B C\) is a diameter of the ring (see diagram).

The disc has centre \(O\), mass \(2 M\) and radius \(a\), and \(A B O\) is a straight line. The disc and the rod are in the same vertical plane. A particle \(P\), of mass \(M\), is attached to the rod at a distance \(k a\) from \(A\), where \(k\) is a positive constant (see diagram). Show that the moment of inertia of this system, about a fixed horizontal axis \(l\) through \(A\) perpendicular to the plane of the disc, is \(\left( 67 + k ^ { 2 } \right) M a ^ { 2 }\). The system is free to rotate about \(l\) and performs small oscillations of period \(4 \pi \sqrt { } \left( \frac { a } { g } \right)\). Find the possible values of \(k\).

An object is formed from a square frame \(A B C D\) with a square lamina attached in one corner of the frame. The frame consists of four identical thin rods, each of mass \(M\) and length \(2 a\). The lamina has mass \(k M\) and edges of length \(a\). It has one vertex at \(C\) and adjacent sides in contact with \(C B\) and \(C D\) (see diagram).

1. Show that the moment of inertia of the object about an axis \(l\) through \(A\) perpendicular to the plane of the object is \(\frac { 2 } { 3 } M a ^ { 2 } ( 7 k + 20 )\).
   The object is released from rest with the edge \(A B\) horizontal and \(D\) vertically above \(A\). The object rotates freely about the fixed axis \(l\). The angular speed of the object is \(\frac { 1 } { 2 } \sqrt { } \left( \frac { 5 g } { a } \right)\) when \(D\) is first vertically below \(A\).
2. Find the value of \(k\).

\includegraphics{figure_3} A uniform disc, of radius \(a\) and mass \(2M\), is attached to a thin uniform rod \(AB\) of length \(6a\) and mass \(M\). The rod lies along a diameter of the disc, so that the centre of the disc is a distance \(x\) from \(A\) (see diagram).

The object is free to rotate about the axis \(l\). The object is held with \(AB\) horizontal and is released from rest. When \(AB\) makes an angle \(\theta\) with the vertical, where \(\cos \theta = \frac{3}{5}\), the angular speed of the object is \(\sqrt{\left(\frac{2g}{5a}\right)}\).
