Q.6 Figure shows a composite system of two uniform rods of lengths as indicated. Then the coordinates
of the centre of mass of the system of rods are

𝐿 2𝐿 𝐿 2𝐿 𝐿 2𝐿 𝐿 𝐿
(A) ( , ) (B) ( , ) (C) ( , ) (D) ( , )

Solution: (C)
As rods are uniform, therefore centre of mass of both rods will be at their geometrical centers. The
𝐿
coordinates of CM of first rod⁡𝐶1 are (2 , 0) and second rod⁡𝐶2 are (0, 𝐿).

(A) (0.8, 0.6)m (B) (0.6, 0.8)m

(C) (0.4, 0.4)m (D) (0.5, 0.6)m

Solution: (C)

𝑚1 = 1.6 kg; (𝑥1 , 𝑦1 ) = (0,0)

𝑚2 = 2 kg; (𝑥2 𝑦2 ) = (1.2,0)
𝑚3 = 2.4 kg; (𝑥3 , 𝑦3 ) = (0,1)

𝐶2 → Position of centre of mass of rods 𝐵𝐶 and 𝐷𝐴 (nearer to DA, as it is heavy).

𝐶 → Overall centre of mass of all four rods and it lies in region 1.

Q.9 A body falling vertically downwards under gravity breaks into two parts of unequal masses. The
centre of mass of the two parts taken together shifts horizontally towards

(A) the heavier piece

(B) the lighter piece

(C) does not shift horizontally

(D) depends on the vertical velocity at the time of breaking

Solution: (C)
Centre of mass does not change its path during an explosion. Therefore, it will keep on falling
vertically and will not shift horizontally as 𝐹𝑥 = 0.

Q.10 A ball kept in a closed box moves in the box making collisions with the walls. The box is kept on a
smooth surface. The velocity of the centre of mass

(A) of the box remains constant

(B) of the box plus the ball system remains constant

(C) of the ball remains constant

(D) of the ball relative to the box remains constant

Solution: (B)
Net external force is zero. Hence, velocity of CM of the box and ball system will remain constant.
