MCQ (Multiple Correct Answer)

Figure shows two identical particles 1 and 2, each of mass $$m$$, moving in opposite directions with same speed $$\mathbf{v}$$ along parallel lines. At a particular instant $$\mathbf{r}_1$$ and $$\mathbf{r}_2$$ are their respective position vectors drawn from point $$A$$ which is in the plane of the parallel lines. Choose the correct options.

A
Angular momentum $$I_1$$ of particle 1 about $$A$$ is $$I=m v\left(d_1\right)$$
B
Angular momentum $$I_2$$ of particle 2 about $$A$$ is $$I_2=\mathrm{mvr}_2$$
C
Total angular momentum of the system about $$A$$ is $$I=m v\left(\mathbf{r}_1+\mathbf{r}_2\right)$$
D
Total angular momentum of the system about $$A$$ is $$I=m v\left(d_2-d_1\right) \otimes$$

MCQ (Multiple Correct Answer)

Figure shows a lamina in $$x y$$-plane. Two axes $$z$$ and $$z^{\prime}$$ pass perpendicular to its plane. A force $$\mathbf{F}$$ acts in the plane of lamina at point $$P$$ as shown. Which of the following are true? (The point $$P$$ is closer to $$z^{\prime}$$-axis than the $$z$$-axis.)

A
Torque $$\tau$$ caused by $$\mathbf{F}$$ about $$z$$-axis is along $$-\hat{\mathbf{k}}$$
B
Torque $$\tau^{\prime}$$ caused by $$\mathbf{F}$$ about $$z^{\prime}$$-axis is along $$-\hat{\mathbf{k}}$$
C
Torque $$\tau$$ caused by $$\mathbf{F}$$ about $$z$$-axis is greater in magnitude than that about $$z$$-axis
D
Total torque is given be $$\tau=\tau+\tau^{\prime}$$

MCQ (Multiple Correct Answer)

With reference to figure of a cube of edge $$a$$ and mass $$m$$, state whether the following are true or false. (0 is the centre of the cube.)

A
The moment of inertia of cube about z-axis is $$I_{\mathrm{z}}=I_x+I_{\mathrm{y}}$$
B
The moment of inertia of cube about $$z^{\prime}$$-axis is $$I_z=I_z+\frac{m a^2}{2}$$
C
The moment of inertia of cube about $$z^{\prime \prime}$$-axis is $$=I_z+\frac{m a^2}{2}$$
D
$$I_x=I_y$$

Subjective

The centre of gravity of a body on the earth coincides with its centre of mass for a small object whereas for an extended object it may not. What is the qualitative meaning of small and extended in this regard? For which of the following two coincides? A building, a pond, a lake, a mountain?

Explanation

When the vertical height of the object is very small as compared to the earth's radius, we call the object small, otherwise it is extended.

(i) Building and pond are small objects.

(ii) A deep lake and a mountain are examples of extended objects.
