The position time graph of a body of mass 2 kg is as given in Fig. 5.4. What is the impulse on the body at t = 0 s and t = 4 s.
Two particles of masses m1 and m2 are joined by a light rigid rod of length r. The system rotates at an angular speed ω about an axis through the centre of mass of the system and perpendicular to the rod. Show that the angular momentum of the system is L = μ r2 ω where μ is the reduced mass of the system defined as
