A mass is whirled in a circular path with a constant angular velocity and its angular momentum is L. If the string is now halved keeping the angular velocity same, the angular momentum is

A

L/2

B

L/2

C

L

D

2L

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

` L = mr^(2) omega rArr L prop r^(2)`
` :. L_(2) = L_(1) xx ((r_(2))/(r_(1)))^(2) = L/4`

A mass M hangs on a massless rod of length l which rotates at a constant angular frequency. The mass M moves with steady speed in a circuilar path of constant radius. Assume that the system is in steady circular motion with constant angular velocity omega . The angular momentum of M about point A is L_(A) , which lies in the positive z direction and the angular momentum of M about point B is L_(B) . The correct statement for this system is :
