Detailed Solution

Centre of gravity of a body is the point at which the total gravitational torque on body is zero. Centre of mass and centre of gravity coincides only for symmetrical bodies. Hence statements (1) and (2) are incorrect. A couple of a body produces rotational motion only. Hence statement ( 3) is incorrect. Mechanical advantage greater than one means that the system will require a force that is less than the load in order to move it. Hence statement ( 4 ) is correct.NOTE :  In original question paper options for this question were (a)   (1) and (2)    (b)  (2) and (3)        (c)  (3) and (4)    (d )  (2) and (4)None of the given options is correct. Hence option (4) is modified and made the correct option
