rotational motion

a disc of mass M and radius R, lying in the vertical plane is free to rotate about a horizontal axis passing through its centre . a body of mass M is fixed at the highest point of the disc Now the system is released When the body comes to the lowest position then its angular speed will be??
please give solution

Mg(2R)=(1/2)(MR2/2)ω2+(1/2)M(ωR)2

solving this we get
ω28g/3R

ω=√8g/3R

Or You can find moment of inertia of system about hinge and then apply (1/2)Ipω2

Ip=(MR2/2+MR2) = 3MR2/2

then Mg(2R)=(1/2)Ipω2
2MgR=3/4MR2ω2
ω=√8g/3R

Abhishek my problem is that in the first method you gave , why we have taken the angular velocity of mass M and the disc to be same

Why aren't they the same, karan?

if ω is angular speed of disc then velocity of any particle on its circumference..(mass M is also there..) is ωR..

please can you explain giving some example or some concept that why the angular velocities are same

Consider a disc rotating with ang speed ω about com.. vith vcom=0

velocity of a particle at a distance R/2 from center is............
velocity of a particle at a distance R from center is............

or consider a rod rotating with ang speed ω then speed of particle halfway the rod is....... (if rod of length l is hinged at one end...)

If U know answers to these u know the one u asked...
