For example, consider a wheel which rolls on a horizontal surface. Leta particle at ‘A’ be present on the rim of the wheel. It follows a complicated ‘cycloid’ path, as they are under the influence of both translatory and rotatory motion of the body. Similarly, another particle at “B” also follows a complicated path as shown in the figure. But a particle at °C’ present on the axel of the wheel follows a simple linear path. This point “C” represents the centre of mass of the wheel. This point ‘C’ moves as if the (otal external force is acting on it, The particle at the centre of mass is exhibiting only simple translatory motion. Consider an Indian club, projected up as shown in the figure. Different particles inside the club follow complicated paths as they are under the influence of both translatory and rotatory motion of the body. But 4 particle at point °C’ in the Indian club follows a simple parabolic path, as if the total external force (i. ‘gravitational force) is acting on the particle. This particle *C” represents centre of mass of the Indian club which exhibits simple parabolic motion. ‘The path of a particle at centre of mass point represents the motion of the body since itis similar to the path followed by a particle projected similar to the body. From the above 2 examples, we can say different particles in a body may have different complicated paths bbut a certain point of the body has simple pure translational motion. The motion of this single point represents the motion of the entire body. This point within the boundary is called the centre of mass or ‘centre of inertia.

Motion of Explosion of a Projectile (e.g. fire cracker) in mi Let us consider a projectile which explodes in air. Before explosion, the projectile moves along parabolic path, After explosion, different fragments move in different paths, but the centre of mass of the projectile continues to move in the same parabolic path. Parabolic path of the projectile Exploston \, Path of the CM Nof fragments \ \ Fig. 7.12 The centre of mass of the fragments of the projectile continues along the same parabolic path which it would have followed if there were no explosion. Explanation: The projectile follows a parabolic path under the action of gravity (j.c. carth’s gravitational force). Explosion of the projectile occurs due to the internal forces only ie. without any external force. ‘These internal forces cannot change the total momentum of the system although they may change the ‘momenta of the individual fragments. Thus the centre of mass will remain unaffected after the explosion and hence follows the same parabolic path, Q. From a uni of radius R, a circular hole of radius R/2 is cut out.

The turn table is set into rotation at a constant angular velocity co. If the man now starts to bring his hands closer to his body, we will observe that the angular velocity increases gradually. The angular velocity becomes maximum ‘when the man folds his hands. This can be explained using the principle of conservation of angular momentum, According to this principle, if there is no extemal torque, L.= constant i ko ~ constant, Angular velocity is inversely proportional to the moment of inertia, As the man brings his hands closer to his body, I decreases.
