Answer Key : (c) -

(c)

The applied force shifts the normal reaction to one corner as shown in figure. At this situation, the cubical block starts topping about . Taking torque about , we get



Next Question :

a)

The angular momentum of the system will change by

b)

The angular velocity of the system will change by

c)

If the system was initially at rest, it will acquire rotational kinetic energy

d)

The kinetic energy of the system will change by
