Force F⇶Ä=(2.0N)i^-(3.0N)k^acts on a pebble with position vectorr⇶Ä=(0.50m)j^-(2.0m)k^relative to the origin. In unit- vector notation, (a) What is the resulting torque on the pebble about the origin and (b) What is the resulting torque on the pebble about the point(2.0m,0,-3.0m)?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. Net torque at origin is-1.5i^+-4j^+-1k^Nm
  2. Net torque at given point-1.5i^+-4j^+-1k^Nm

Step by step solution

To understand the concept of torque and force

As per the concept, the torque acting on a body is due to the tangential force acting on a body along a radial path of the object in a circular motion. Thus, the cross-vector of the force and radial vector of the object will give the torque value. Hence, through comparison of the torque given and calculated format, the force value can be given.

Formulae:

The position vector in a 3-D diagramr⇶Ä=xi^+yj^+zk^

The force vector in 3-D, F⇶Ä=Fxi^+Fyj^+Fzk^

The torque acting on the body due to the tangential force,

τ⇶Ä=r⇶Ä×F⇶Ä=ijkxyzFxFyFz=yFz-zFyi^+zFx-xFzj^+xFy-yFxk^

03

(a) Determining the resulting torque on the pebble about the origin

Using the formula for the torque, we have,

Ï„^=ijk00.5-220-3=-1.5i^+-4j^+-1k^Nm

04

(b) Determining the resulting torque on the pebble about the point (2.0m, -3.0m)

Now,

r⇶Ä'=r⇶Ä-r⇶Ä0=-2.0i^+0.5j^+1k^mF⇶Ä=2Ni^+0j^-3Nk^τ⇶Ä=ijk-20.5120-3=-1.5Nmi^+-6+2Nmj^+-2×0-2×0.5Nmk^=-1.5i^+-4j^+-1k^Nm

A Texas cockroach of mass 0.17kg runs counterclockwise around the rim of a lazy Susan (a circular disk mounted on a vertical axle) that has radius 15 cm, rotational inertia 5.0×10−3kgm2, and frictionless bearings. The cockroach’s speed (relative to the ground) is 2.0m/s, and the lazy Susan turns clockwise with angular speed Ӭ0=2.8rad/s.The cockroach finds a bread crumb on the rim and, of course, stops.

(a) What is the angular speed of the lazy Susan after the cockroach stops?

(b) Is mechanical energy conserved as it stops?
