In this question, a statement of assertion
is followed by a statement of reason
. Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion: Moment of inertia of a particle changes with the change in axis of rotation.
Reason: Moment of inertia depends on mass of the particle only.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsC
: The moment of inertia of a particle about an axis of rotation is given by the product of the
mass of the particle and the square of the distance of the particle from the axis of rotation. For different axis, distance would be different, therefore moment of inertia of a particle changes with the change in axis of rotation.
