Assertion (A) : When a uniform metallic rod rotating about perpendicular bisector with constant angular speed is heated uniformly to raise its temperature slightly, its speed of rotation increases. Reason (R) : When a metal rod is heated uniformly to raise its temperature slightly its moment of inertia increases.
  1. (A) and (R) are true and R is correct explanation of A.
  2. (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not correct explanation of $\mathrm{A}$
  3. (A) is true, but (R) is false
  4. (A) is false but $\mathrm{R}$ is true

Solution

When rod is heated uniformly, its moment inertia increases As L = constant, so angular speed should decrease.
