A particle of mass 20 g is released with an initial velocity 5 m/s along the curve from the point A, as shown in the figure. The point A is at height h from point B. The particle slides along the frictionless surface. When the particle reaches point B, its angular momentum about O will be : (Take g= 10 m/s2)

(a)

8kg - m2/s

(b)

6kg - m2/s

(c)

3kg - m2/s

(d)

2kg - m2/s

Answer Key / Explanation : (b) -

Work Energy Theorem from A to B

mgh =  m    −  mv

2gh =  −

2×10×10=  −52

 Angular momentum about 0

  L0= m r

      = 20×10−3×20

 L0 = 6 kg.m2/s
