A T shaped uniform density object with dimensions shown in the figure is lying on a smooth floor. A force F → is applied at the point P parallel to AB such that the object has only the translational motion without rotation. Find the location of P with respect to C ., 4 3 l, l, 3 4 l, 3 2 l

MARKS App · Accepted Answer

It is a case of translation motion without rotation. The force should act at the centre of mass Y cm = m × 2 l + 2 m × l m + 2 m = 4 l 3 ( considering point C as origin )
