MCQ
If there is no external force acting on a nonrigid body, which of the following quantities must remain constant?
- AAngular momentum.
- BLinear momentum.
- ✓$A$ and $B$
- DMoment of inertia.
$\overrightarrow{\text{F}}_{\text{ext}}=0$
$\Rightarrow\overrightarrow{\tau}_{\text{ext}}=0$
That is, the change in linear momentum and angular momentum is zero. This is because:
$\frac{\text{d}\overrightarrow{\text{P}}}{\text{dt}}=\overrightarrow{\text{F}}_{\text{ext}}$
And $\frac{\text{d}\overrightarrow{\text{L}}}{\text{dt}}=\overrightarrow{\tau}_{\text{ext}}$
