6.System of Particles and Rotational Motion
hard

A binary star consists of two stars $\mathrm{A}$ (mass $2.2 \mathrm{M}_5$ ) and $\mathrm{B}$ (mass $11 \mathrm{M}_5$ ), where $\mathrm{M}_5$ is the mass of the sun. They are separated by distance $\mathrm{d}$ and are rotating about their centre of mass, which is stationary. The ratio of the total angular momentum of the binary star $\mathrm{A}$ to the angular momentum of star $\mathrm{B}$ about the centre of mass is

A

$1$

B

$2$

C

Solution

$ \frac{\mathrm{L}_{\text {toral }}}{\mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{B}}}=\frac{\mathrm{m}_1 \mathrm{I}_1^2}{\mathrm{~m}_2 \mathrm{I}_2^2}+1$
