Physics · SYSTEMS OF PARTICLES AND ROTATIONAL MOTION
हिन्दीIf the origin of the coordinate frame of reference is chosen at the centre of mass of a system of \( n \) particles, then the sum \( \sum_{i=1}^{n} m_i \mathbf{r}_i \) is equal to:
Correct answer · Option 3
\( 0 \)
Explanation
Since \( \mathbf{R} = \frac{\sum m_i \mathbf{r}_i}{M} \), if \( \mathbf{R} = 0 \), it follows that \( \sum m_i \mathbf{r}_i = 0 \).
