A T shape with dimensions shown in Figure is lying on a smooth floor. A force

\vec F

is applied at the point

P

parallel to

AB

, such that the object has only the translation motion without rotation. Find the location of

P

with respect to

C

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

\frac{4}{3}l

Option B (

\frac{4}{3}l

) is correct because the force must be applied at the center of mass to avoid rotation, and the center of mass is located at a distance of

\frac{4}{3}l

from point C.
