Questions  

A number of forces are acting on a system. If net external force on the system is zero, Then 

a
net external torque on the system must be zero
b
angular momentum of the system must remain conserved
c
Linear momentum of the system may remain conserved
d
angular momentum of the system may  remain conserved

detailed solution

Correct option is D

If net external force is zero, then linear momentum of the system must be conserved.If external  forces are not concurrent then , net external torque will not be zero and in that case angular momentum of the system will not be conserved If external  forces are concurrent then net external torque must be zero and in this case angular momentum remain conserved.
