MCQ

Figure shows two cylindrical rods whose center of mass is marked as $A$ and $B$ . Line $AB$ divides the region in two parts one containing point $O$ (region $1$ ) and other containing point $O'$ (region $2$ ). Choose the correct option regarding the center of mass of the combined system.

A
The center of mass of the system lies in region $1$
B
The center of mass of the system lies in region $2$
✓
The center of mass of the system lies on line $AB$
D
The center of mass of the system may lie in region $1$ or region $2$ depending on the mas of the rods

✓

Answer

Correct option: C.

The center of mass of the system lies on line $AB$

c
Centre of mass will lie on the line joining $COM$ of both the rods.
