An alphabet ' \(T\) made of two similar thin uniform metal plates of each length ' \(L\) ' and width ' \(a\) ' is placed on a horizontal surface as shown in the figure. If the alphabet is vertically inverted, the shift in the position of its centre of mass from the horizontal surface is
- A \(\frac{L-a}{2}\)
- B \(\frac{a-L}{2}\)
- C \(L-\frac{a}{2}\)
- D \(\frac{L}{2}-a\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
