A particle is moving along line y = 4x with a
speed 10 m/s. If the mass of the particle is
2 kg then its angular momentum about the
point (1,4) is
Answers
Answer:
A particle having mass 2 kg is moving along straight line 3x+4y=5 with speed 8 m/s. Find angular momentum of the particle about origin. x and y are in meters
The angular momentum at the point (1,4) is 0.
Step-by-step procedure
Given:
The particle moves along the line; y = 4x
Speed of the particle; v= 10 m/s
Mass of the particle; m= 2 Kg
To find = angular momentum
Solution:
The angular momentum of a particle is given by:
Angular momentum;L= m× v × r
Since the momentum needs to be found for the point( 1,4);
Thus, putting the values x= 1 and y= 4 in the line equation:
4= 4× 1
4=4
Thus, the point is at a distance of 0 from the line y= 4x
So, distance of the particle; r= 0 cm
Putting the values in the equation for angular momentum:
L= 2× 10 × 0
L= 0
Result:
Thus the angular momentum at the point (1,4) is 0.
