NK C SI R: Rigid Body Dynamics, Home Work Sheet-7

This document contains 11 multiple choice questions regarding rigid body dynamics and angular momentum. The questions cover topics such as: - Angular momentum of objects moving with constant velocity or projected at an angle - Changes in angular momentum due to applied torques over time - Angular momentum during collisions between objects like balls and rods or spheres - Angular velocity changes when mass is added to objects like merry-go-rounds - Center of mass velocity when an object hits another like a ball hitting a rod The document also provides the answers to each question.
