MCQ
Consider the following two equations:
$A. \overrightarrow{\text{R}}=\frac{1}{\text{M}}\sum\limits_{\text{i}}\text{m}_\text{i}\overrightarrow{\text{r}}_\text{i}$
$B. \overrightarrow{\text{a}}_\text{cm}=\frac{\overrightarrow{\text{F}}}{\text{M}}$
In a noninertial frame
  • A
    Both are correct.
  • B
    Both are wrong.
  • $A$ is correct but $B$ is wrong.
  • D
    $B$ is correct but $A$ is wrong.

Answer

Correct option: C.
$A$ is correct but $B$ is wrong.
In a non$-$inertial frame, the position of centre of mass of the particle does not change but an additional pseudo force acts on it.
