2. | Angular momentum changes in magnitude but not in the direction |
3. | Angular momentum changes in direction but not in magnitude |
4. | Angular momentum changes both in direction and magnitude |
In free space, a rifle of mass M shoots a bullet of mass m at a stationary block of mass M at a distance D away from it. When the bullet has moved through a distance d towards the block, the centre of mass of the bullet - block system is at a distance of

2. from the block
3. from the block
4. from the bullet
