Questions and Answers

In the context of rotational motion, what is a particle?

  • A body of finite size
  • A system of particles
  • A moving object
  • A point mass with practically no size (correct)
  • Why is the idealized model of a particle inadequate for dealing with the motion of extended bodies?

  • Because it does not move
  • Because it is a system of particles
  • Because it has a finite size (correct)
  • Because it has practically no size
  • What is an extended body in the context of rotational motion?

  • A body of finite size
  • A point mass with practically no size
  • A moving object
  • A system of particles (correct)
  • Why is the motion of extended bodies described in terms of the motion of a particle?
