MCQ

A uniform metallic rod rotates about its perpendicular bisector with constant angular speed. If it is heated uniformly to raise its temperature slightly:

A
Its speed of rotation increases.
✓
Its speed of rotation decreases.
C
Its speed of rotation remains same.
D
Its speed increases because its moment of inertia increases.

✓

Answer

Correct option: B.

Its speed of rotation decreases.

On heating a uniform metallic rod its length will increase so moment of inertia of rod increased from $I_1$ to $I_2$
$($i.e., $I_1 \text{I}_1\omega_1=\text{I}_2\omega_2)$
$\because\ \text{I}_1<\text{I}_2\Rightarrow\omega_1>\omega_2,$
so angular speed decreases.
