The angular momentum of a particle relative to a certain O varies →L=→a+→bt2 where →a and →b are constant vectors with →a perpendicular to →b. The torque →t relative to the point O acting on the particle when angle between →τ and →L is 45o is:

Solution
The correct option is B→τ=2→b√|a||b| Given- ∗ Angular momentum →L=→a+→bt2 Thurfor torque →τ=ddt(→L)=2→b⋅t
Now at an instant when angle between torque vector and →L vector is 45∘−⇒|→t⋅→L|=|→E|⋅|→L|⋅cos45∘⇒2|→b|2⋅t3=2|→b|⋅t√|→a|2+|→b|2t4⋅1√2⇒2|→b|2t4=|¯a|2+|→b|2t4⇒t=√|¯a||→b|⇒→τ=2→b⋅t=2→b√1→a∣|¯b|⇒ Hence, option (B) is correct.
