A particle of mass \(m\) moves in the XY plane with a velocity \(v\) along the straight line AB. If the angular momentum of the particle with respect to the origin \(O\) is \(L_A\) when it is at \(A\) and \(L_B\) when it is at \(B,\) then: 
         

1. \(L_A>L_B\)
2. \(L_A=L_B\)
3. the relationship between \(L_A\) and \(L_B\) depends upon the slope of the line \(AB.\)
4. \(L_A<L_B\)

A uniform disc of mass \(m\) and radius \(r\) is rotating freely about its own axis, which is kept vertical. There is a small insect of mass \(\dfrac m2\) sitting on the periphery of the disc, also rotating with the disc. The initial angular speed of the disc is \(\omega_0.\) The insect moves radially inward and finally reaches the centre. The final angular speed of the disc is:
1. \(\omega_0\) 2. \(2\omega_0\)
3. \(\dfrac32\omega_0\) 4. \(\dfrac52\omega_0\)

A uniform rod of mass \(m\) and length \(L\) is struck at both ends by two particles of masses m, each moving with identical speeds \(u,\) but in opposite directions, perpendicular to its length. The particles stick to the rod after colliding with it. The system rotates with an angular speed:

1. \(\dfrac{u}{L}\) 2. \(\dfrac{2u}{L}\)
3. \(\dfrac{12u}{7L}\) 4. \(\dfrac{6u}{L}\)
