The distance of centre of mass from end \(A\) of a one dimensional rod \(( AB )\) having mass density \(\rho=\rho_{0}\left(1-\frac{ x ^{2}}{ L ^{2}}\right)\,kg / m\) and length \(L\) (in meter) is \(\frac{3 L }{\alpha} m\). The value of \(\alpha\) is \(\ldots \ldots \ldots . .\) (where \(x\) is the distance form end \(A\) )

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(8\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(dm =\lambda \cdot dx =\lambda_{0}\left(1-\frac{ x ^{2}}{\ell^{2}}\right)\)

\(X _{ cm }=\frac{\int xdm }{\int dm _{\ell}}\)

\(=\frac{\lambda_{0} \int_{0}^{\ell}\left( x -\frac{ x ^{3}}{\ell^{2}}\right) dx }{\int_{0}^{\ell} \lambda_{0}\left(1-\frac{ x ^{2}}{\ell^{2}}\right) dx }=\frac{\frac{\ell^{2}}{2}-\frac{\ell^{4}}{4 \ell^{2}}}{\ell-\frac{\ell^{3}}{3 \ell^{2}}}=\frac{3 \ell}{8}\)
