A yo-yo, arranged as shown, rests on a frictionless surface. When a force `F` is applied to the string, the yo-yo

A

moves to the left and rotates counterclockwise

B

moves to the right and rotates counterclockwise

C

moves to the left and rotates clockwise

D

moves to the right and rotates clockwise

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Net force is F which is towards right. Torque due to this force will be in anticlockwise direction
