Question

A solid cylinder of mass 3kg and radius 0.5m rotates at 7rad/s. What is its angular momentum about its axis?

Options

Choose one · Correct answer highlighted

Explanation

I = 12MR2 = 12×3×(0.5)2 = 0.375kg m2. L = Iω = 0.375×7 = 2.625kg m2/s. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to 2.625 kg m²/s. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option B is scientifically correct.
