Question

A 5kg object moves with a velocity of 4i^+2j^m/s. What is the magnitude of the velocity of its center of mass?

Options

Choose one · Correct answer highlighted

Explanation

For a single object, the center of mass velocity equals the object’s velocity. Magnitude = (4)2+(2)2 = 16+4 = 20≈4.47m/s. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to 4.47 m/s. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option B is scientifically correct.
