(b) Angular momentum =

If the point is on the straight line, will have the same direction and their cross product will be zero. Hence, angular momentum is zero.

(c) If the point is not on the straight line, will not have the same direction and their cross product will not be zero.

Hence, angular momentum is non-zero.

(d) No external torque is applied on the body; therefore, its angular momentum about any given point remains constant.

Two small balls A and B, each of mass m, are joined rigidly to the ends of a light rod of length L (see the following figure). The system translates on a frictionless horizontal surface with a velocity in a direction perpendicular to the rod. A particle P of mass m kept at rest on the surface sticks to the ball A as the ball collides with it. Find
(a) the linear speeds of the balls A and B after the collision,
(b) the velocity of the centre of mass C of the system A + B + P and
(c) the angular speed of the system about C after the collision.[Hint : The light rod will exert a force on the ball Bonly along its length.]
