Vedclass · Answer

(B) The torque $\vec{	au}$ about the origin is given by the cross product of the position vector $\vec{r}$ and the force vector $\vec{F}$.Given,$\vec{r} = -\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} - 3\hat{k}$ and $\vec{F} = 2\hat{i} - \hat{j} + 3\hat{k}$.$\vec{	au} = \vec{r} 	imes \vec{F} = \begin{vmatrix} \hat{i} & \hat{j} & \hat{k} \ -1 & 2 & -3 \ 2 & -1 & 3 \end{vmatrix}$$= \hat{i}((2)(3) - (-3)(-1)) - \hat{j}((-1)(3) - (-3)(2)) + \hat{k}((-1)(-1) - (2)(2))$$= \hat{i}(6 - 3) - \hat{j}(-3 + 6) + \hat{k}(1 - 4)$$= 3\hat{i} - 3\hat{j} - 3\hat{k}$$= 3(\hat{i} - \hat{j} - \hat{k}) 	ext{ N}\,	ext{m}$.

$A$ force $\vec{F} = (2\hat{i} - \hat{j} + 3\hat{k}) \text{ N}$ is acting at a point $(-1, 2, -3) \text{ m}$. Find its torque about the origin.

If $\vec{F} = (5 \hat{i} - 10 \hat{j}) \text{ N}$ and $\vec{r} = (4 \hat{i} - 3 \hat{j}) \text{ m}$,then the torque $\vec{\tau}$ acting on the object will be:

The magnitude of torque on a particle of mass $1\,kg$ is $2.5\,Nm$ about the origin. If the force acting on it is $1\,N$,and the distance of the particle from the origin is $5\,m$,the angle between the force and the position vector is (in radians)

$A$ particle of mass $m$ is moving along a trajectory given by $x = x_0 + a \cos \omega_1 t$ and $y = y_0 + b \sin \omega_2 t$. The torque acting on the particle about the origin at $t = 0$ is:
