MCQ
What does not change in the field of central force
  • A
    Potential energy
  • B
    Kinetic energy
  • C
    Linear momentum
  • Angular momentum

Answer

Correct option: D.
Angular momentum
d
(d) For central force, torque is zero. 

$\;\tau  = \frac{{dL}}{{dt}} = 0$

$L =$ constant 

i.e. Angular momentum is constant.
