Center of mass and torque test
Question 1 Write the expression for the position vector of the center of mass of n-particle system.
Question 2 Discus the motion of center of mass of the decay of radio-active nucleus into two parts.
Question 3 (a) Define the term torque (with the help of labeled diagram) . Give its units and dimensional formula. Show that it is product of force and its lever arm.
(b) State and explain the principle of moments of rotational equilibrium.
Question 4 Obtain expression for the work done by torque. Hence write the expression for power delivered by a torque.
Question 5 (a) Prove that the angular momentum of a particle is equal to twice the product of its mass and areal velocity.
(b) How does it lead to Kepler’s second law of planetary motion.
Question 6 Show that the area of the triangle contained between the vectors $\vec a$ and $\vec b$ is one half of the magnitude of $\vec a \times \vec b$.
Question 7 Find the torque of a force $7\hat i -3\hat j -5\hat k$ about the origin which acts on a particle whose position vector is $\hat i +\hat j – \hat k$.
Question 8 Torque and work are both equal to force times distance then how do they differ.
