MCQ
A cricket bat is cut at the location of its centre of mass as shown Then:
- ✓The two pieces will have the same mass.
- BThe bottom piece will have large mass.
- CThe upper piece will have large mass .
- DNone of these.
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
The two pieces will have the same mass.
Center of mass is closer to massive part of the body therefore the bottom piece of but has larger mass.
