Question

What is the effect of increasing the mass of a rotating body on its angular momentum, if angular velocity remains constant?

Options

Choose one · Correct answer highlighted

Explanation

Angular momentum L = Iω, and I increases with mass. If ω is constant, L increases proportionally with mass. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to It increases. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option C is scientifically correct.
