A rigid body rotates with an angular momentum L. If its rotational kinetic energy is made four times, its angular momentum will become

  1. A \(4 \mathrm{~L}\)
  2. B \(16 \mathrm{~L}\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{2} \mathrm{~L}\)
  4. D \(2 \mathrm{~L}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(2 \mathrm{~L}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Angular momentum,
\(\mathrm{L} =\sqrt{2 \mathrm{KI}}\)
\(\mathrm{K} =4 \mathrm{~K}\)
\(\therefore \mathrm{L} =\sqrt{2 \times 4 \mathrm{KI}}=2 \sqrt{2 \mathrm{KI}}=2 \mathrm{~L}\)
