Correct Answer: 3
Solution and Explanation
dcm= 3sin 45°=\(\frac{3}{\sqrt2}\)
dcm=\(\frac{2}{3}\)×\(\frac{3}{\sqrt2}\)
=\(\sqrt2\)=\(\sqrt x\)
x=2

Concepts Used:
Rotational Motion
Rotational motion can be defined as the motion of an object around a circular path, in a fixed orbit.
Rotational Motion Examples:
The wheel or rotor of a motor, which appears in rotation motion problems, is a common example of the rotational motion of a rigid body.
Other examples:
- Moving by Bus
- Sailing of Boat
- Dog walking
- A person shaking the plant.
- A stone falls straight at the surface of the earth.
- Movement of a coin over a carrom board
Types of Motion involving Rotation:
- Rotation about a fixed axis (Pure rotation)
- Rotation about an axis of rotation (Combined translational and rotational motion)
- Rotation about an axis in the rotation (rotating axis)
