AP EAMCET · PHYSICS · Center of Mass Momentum and Collision
Three identical spheres each of diameter \(2 \sqrt{3} \mathrm{~m}\) are kept on a horizontal surface such that each sphere touches the other two spheres. If one of the sphere is removed, then the shift in the position of the centre of mass of the system is
- A 12 m
- B 1 m
- C 2 m
- D \(\frac{3}{2} \mathrm{~m}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 1 m
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The centre of mass of the spheres is given by \( x_{\mathrm{CM}}=\frac{m_1 x_1+m_2 x_2+m_3 x_3}{m_1+m_2+m_3} \) As the spheres are identical,…
