A smooth tube of certain mass is rotated...

A smooth tube of certain mass is rotated in a gravity-free Space and released. The two balls shown in Fig move towards the ends of the tube. For the whole system, which of the following quantities is not conserved.

A

Angular momentum

B

Linear momentum

C

Kinetic energy

D

Angular speed

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
As `Sigmatau=0` , Angular momentum, linear momentum remains conserved.
As the two balls will move radially out, I changes. In order to keep to the angular momentum (`L=I omega`) conserved, angular speed `(omega)` should change. Hence.(D)
