Question

The time dependence of the position of a particle of mass 2 kg is given by r(t)=2t^i3t2^j m. Its angular momentum with respect to origin at time t=2 s is given by N^k kg.m2/s, the value of N is

Solution

We know that angular momentum, L=r×p .....(1)
r(t)=2t^i3t2^j
At t=2 s, r=4^i12^j m
Velocity of particle, v=drdt=2^i6t^j
At t=2 s, v=2^i12^j m/s
Now linear momentum,
p=mv=4^i24^j .........(2) [ m=2 kg ]
From Eq. (1) and (2),
L=r×p
L=∣ ∣ ∣^i^j^k41204240∣ ∣ ∣
L=^i(00)^j(00)+^k(96(48))
L=48^k kg.m2/s
Since, L=N^k kg.m2/s
Hence on comparing we get,
N=48
