Answer: \(\\{A\\}\) Both Statement \(-1\) and Statement \(-2\) are true, and Statement \(-2\) is the correct explanation for Statement \(-1\).

Step by step solution

01

Analyzing Statement -1

Given a cylinder rolling with an angular speed w, suddenly breaking up into two equal halves with the same radius. The angular speed of each piece is said to become 2w. The moment of inertia of the whole cylinder can be expressed as \(I_{cylinder} = \frac{1}{2}MR^2\), where M is the total mass of the cylinder, and R is the radius. After breaking apart, the two equal halves of the cylinder have half the mass of the initial cylinder. Therefore, the moment of inertia of each half can be represented as \(I_{half} = \frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{M}{2}\right)R^2 = \frac{1}{4}MR^2\). According to the conservation of angular momentum, the initial angular momentum of the cylinder is equal to the sum of the angular momenta of the two halves: \(I_{cylinder}\omega = 2I_{half}\omega'\)
02

Analyzing Statement -2

Statement -2 says that if no external torque acts on the system, the angular momentum of the system is conserved. By definition, if no external torque is involved, the angular momentum of such a system is indeed conserved. Therefore, statement -2 is true.
03

Checking the relationship between Statement -1 and Statement -2

Now we need to check if statement -2 is the correct explanation for statement -1. For this, we can use the conservation of angular momentum equation derived in step 1: \(\frac{1}{2}MR^2\omega = 2\left(\frac{1}{4}MR^2\right)\omega'\) Simplifying the equation, we get: \(\omega = 2\omega'\) Hence, angular speed of each half becomes 2w. Since the conservation of angular momentum (statement -2) is the reason behind the resulting angular speed of the two halves (statement -1), it is the correct explanation for statement -1. So, our final answer is: \(\\{A\\}\) Statement \(-1\) is correct (true), Statement \(-2\) is true and Statement- 2 is correct explanation for Statement \(-1\)
