Does the centre of mass of a body necessarily lie inside the body?

The centre of mass (C.M.) can be defined as a point where the mass of a body is supposed to be concentrated.For the above listed geometric shapes having a uniform mass density, the centre of mass lies at their respec...

A child sits stationary at one end of a long trolley moving uniformly with a speed on a smooth horizontal floor. If the child gets up and runs about on the trol...

There will not be any change in the speed of the centre of mass of the given system. The child is running arbitrarily on a trolley that is moving forward with velocity . However, the running of the child will have n...

What is Moment of Inertia ?

Moment of inertia gives the measure of mass distribution about an axis.I = m1r1^2Where r1= Perpendicular distance of the i th mass from the axis of rotation.SI unit → kg-m2  Gives the measure of rotati...

What is Static Friction, Limiting Friction and Kinetic Friction?

·        The opposing force that comes into play when one body tends to move over the surface of another, but the actual relative motion has yet not started is called Static friction.·     Limiting friction is the max...

What is friction ?

Friction is an opposing force that comes into play when one body actually moves (slides or rolls) or even tries to move over the surface of another body.  Thus, the force of friction is the force that develops a...

Explain why: a. a horse cannot pull a cart and run in empty space b. passengers are thrown forward from their seats when a speeding bus stops suddenly,

a.                 a horse cannot pull a cart and run in empty space, Ans: In order to pull a cart, a horse pushes the ground backward with some force. The ground in turn exerts an equal and opposite reaction force upo...

Applications of Newton’s Laws of Motion

There are two kinds of problems in classical mechanics :(a) To find unknown forces acting on a body, given the body’s acceleration. (b) To predict the future motion of a body, given the body’s initial position and vel...

Two billiard balls each of mass 0.05kg moving in opposite directions with speed 6ms^-1 collide and rebound with the same speed. What is the impulse imparted to...

It is given that,Mass of each ball =0.05 kg Initial velocity of each ball = 6 m/sMagnitude of the initial momentum of each ball, pi=0.3kgms^-1After collision, the balls change their directions of motion without changing...

A rocket with a lift-off mass 20,000 kg is blasted upwards with an initial acceleration of 5.0 ms^-2. Calculate the initial thrust (force) of the blast.

It is known that, Mass of the rocket,m= 20,000 kgInitial acceleration,a=5ms^-2Acceleration due to gravity,g =10ms^-2By using Newton’s second law of motion, The net force (thrust) acting on the rocket can be written as:F-...

The mass of a box measured by a grocer’s balance is 2.30 kg. Two gold pieces of masses 20.15 g and 20.17 g are added to the box. What is (a) the total mass of...

The mass of the box = 2.30 kgand the mass of the first gold piece = 20.15 gThe mass of the second gold piece = 20.17 gThe total mass = 2.300 + 0.2015 + 0.2017 = 2.7032 kgSince 1 is the least number of decimal places,...
