2
Day 3

Practise

Solve the textbook exercises and extra practice questions. There are 49 questions available for this chapter.

3
Day 4

Revise & Test

Revise key points without looking at your notes. Take a practice quiz and mark weak areas for another pass.

Day 7

Spaced Revision

Come back to System of Particles & Rotatory Motion after a week. Use flashcards for quick recall and try past exam questions on this chapter.

What to Focus On

  • Rigid body: distances between particles remain fixed.
  • Ideal concept — no perfect rigid bodies in nature.
  • Examples: steel wheel, cricket ball, Earth (approximately).
  • CM is the average position weighted by mass.
  • For continuous bodies, use integration: X_cm = (1/M) ∫x dm.
  • CM motion depends only on external forces.
  • CG is where total weight appears to act.
  • CG and CM coincide in uniform gravity.
  • Stability increases when CG is low and base is wide.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Centre of mass must always lie inside the physical body.

Moment of inertia depends only on mass and radius, like mass in linear motion.

Torque is simply force multiplied by distance, without considering angle or direction.

Memory Tips

Centre of Mass (CM) is the point where the entire mass appears to be concentrated

Formula for Centre of Mass: \( X_{cm} = rac{\sum m_i x_i}{\sum m_i} \)

Moment of Inertia resists rotational motion like mass resists linear motion

Theorem of Parallel Axes: \( I = I_{cm} + Md^2 \)
