Questions and Answers

What is the significance of the center of mass in a system of particles?

  • It represents the average position of all the particles in the system. (correct)
  • It determines the shape of the rigid body.
  • It is the point where the total mass of the system is concentrated. (correct)
  • It indicates the location of the heaviest particle in the system.
  • Which of the following best defines a rigid body?

  • A body whose particles are free to move independently.
  • A body that does not deform and maintains a constant shape. (correct)
  • A body made entirely of particles with zero size.
  • A body that can change shape under an applied force.
  • Why is treating large bodies as point masses inadequate?

  • Their mass cannot be concentrated at a single point.
  • They always change shape under any motion.
  • They participate in rotational motion only.
  • They have a finite size and their internal structure affects motion. (correct)
  • What is one characteristic of real bodies that is often negligible in certain scenarios?
