Physics
1 answer:
Art [367]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The false statement is in option 'd': The center of mass of an object must lie within the object.

Explanation:

Center of mass is a theoretical point in a system of particles where the whole mass of the system is assumed to be concentrated.

Mathematically the position vector of center of mass is defined as

\overrightarrow{r}_{com}=\int \overrightarrow{r}_{i}dm

where,

\overrightarrow{r}_{i} is the position vector of the mass dm.

As we can see for homogenous symmetrical objects such as a sphere,cube,disc the center of mass is located at the centroid of the shapes itself but in many shapes it is located outside the body also.

Examples of shapes in which center of mass is located outside the body:

1) Horseshoe shaped body.

2) A thin ring.

In many cases we can make shapes of bodies whose center of mass lies outside the body.

A cat lies on the floor. can you say that no force acts on the cat? or is it correct to say that no net force acts on the cat? e
DIA [1.3K]

Odd though it seems at first, gravity is pulling the cat down while the floor is pushing the cat up - in equal amounts. Forces are absolutely acting on the cat but they balance - so there is no net force.
