1 of 1
Application +4 | -1
A rigid system consists of two point masses, AA and BB of masses 1 kg1 \mathrm{~kg} and 2 kg2 \mathrm{~kg} respectively. At an instant the kinetic energy of AA and BB with respect to the centre of mass is 2 Joule and 1 Joule respectively. The velocity of centre of mass is 2 m/s2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}. The kinetic energy of the system with respect to ground at this instant is:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
9 J9 \mathrm{~J}
Option A (9 J) is correct because the total kinetic energy is the sum of the kinetic energy with respect to the center of mass and the kinetic energy of the center of mass.
