Respuesta :
If the net torque acting on the system is zero, the net force may or may not be zero.
The net torque on the Object is zero implies that the Object cannot have an angular acceleration
but it will have an angular velocity.
Thus, the object will rotate.
The center of mass of the object
will have the linear acceleration since because there will be a net force.
Thus, the correct option
is the object could be both turning and accelerating linearly.
the object could be rotating and its center of mass could be accelerating linearly.
Answer :C
If an object's torque increases to zero, the object could be rotating and its center of mass could be accelerating linearly.
What is torque?
- Torque is a measure of the force which helps an object to rotate about an axis.
- It is also known as the rotational equivalent of linear force.
What happens if the torque on an object adds up to zero?
- If the net torque acting on the system is zero, the net force may or may not be zero.
- The net torque on the object is zero implying that the object can't have an angular acceleration but it will have an angular velocity and therefore, the object will rotate.
- Thus, the object's center of mass will have linear acceleration because there will be a net force.
Hence option (C) 'the object could be rotating and its center of mass could be accelerating linearly' is correct.
