Consider the following two statements:
A. linear momentum of the system remains constant.
B. Centre of mass of the system remains at rest

A

A implies B and B implies A

B

A does not imply B and B does not imply A.

C

A implies B but B does not imply A

D

B implies A but A does not imply B

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

If CM is at rest, it definitetlyy means momentum of hte system is constant. But momentum of the system is constant, it does not mean center of mass is at rest.
