The acceleration of the object is $\overset{鈬赌}{a} = (3.00 m / s^{2}) \hat{i} - (4.00 m / s^{2}) \hat{j} + (2.00 m / s^{2}) \hat{k}$
The angular momentum of the object is
$\overset{鈬赌}{a} = (42.0 k g \frac{m^{2}}{s}) \hat{i} + (24.0 k g \frac{m^{2}}{s}) \hat{j} + (60.0 k g \frac{m^{2}}{s}) \hat{k}$
The torque acting on the object is $\overset{鈬赌}{t} = (- 8.00 N . m) \hat{i} - (26.0 N . m) \hat{j} - (40.0 N . m) \hat{k}$
The angle between the velocity and force acting on the object is $胃 = 127^{o}$

Step by step solution

Identification of given data

To understand the concept

The problem deals with the calculation of angular momentum. The angular momentum of a rigid object is product of the moment of inertia and the angular velocity. It is analogous to linear momentum. Also it involves Newton鈥檚 second law of motion. It states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object.Use the expression of acceleration, angular momentum, and torque acting on the object and find their values. By using dot product of velocity vector and force vector, find the angle between them.

Formulae:

$\begin{array}{rcl} \overset{鈬赌}{F} & = & m \overset{鈬赌}{a} \\ \overset{鈬赌}{l} & = & m (\overset{鈬赌}{r} 脳 \overset{鈬赌}{v}) \\ \overset{鈬赌}{t} & = & \overset{鈬赌}{r} 脳 \overset{鈬赌}{F} \\ \overset{鈬赌}{v} . \overset{鈬赌}{F} & = & v F \cos 胃 \end{array}$

(a) Determining the acceleration of the object

The expression of the force acting on the object is,

$\begin{array}{rcl} \overset{鈬赌}{F} & = & m \overset{鈬赌}{a} \\ \overset{鈬赌}{a} & = & \frac{\overset{鈬赌}{F}}{m} \\ = & \frac{(6.00 N) \hat{i} - (8.00 N) \hat{j} + (4.00 N) \hat{k}}{2.00 k g} \\ = & (3.00 m / s^{2}) \hat{i} - (4.00 m / s^{2}) \hat{j} + (2.00 m / s) \hat{k} \end{array}$

(b) Determining the angular momentum of the object

Let position vector be $\overset{鈬赌}{r} = x \hat{i} + y \hat{j} + z \hat{k}$ and velocity vector be $\overset{鈬赌}{v} = v_{x} \hat{i} + v_{y} \hat{j} + v_{z} \hat{k}$ .

The cross product of the position vector and velocity vector is,

$\overset{鈬赌}{r} 脳 \overset{鈬赌}{v} = (y v_{z} - z v_{y}) \hat{i} + (z v_{x} - x v_{z}) \hat{j} + (x v_{y} - y v_{x}) \hat{k}$

(c) Determining the torque acting on the object

To find torque acting on the object, force acting on it will be $\overset{鈬赌}{F} = {\overset{鈬赌}{F}}_{x} \hat{i} + {\overset{鈬赌}{F}}_{y} \hat{j} + {\overset{鈬赌}{F}}_{z} \hat{k}$ .

(d) Determinng the angle between the velocity and force acting on the object

To find the angle between the velocity and force acting on the object, we can use dot product of two vectors.

The magnitude of force is

$\begin{array}{rcl} F & = & \sqrt{F_{x}^{2} + F_{y}^{2} + F_{z}^{2}} \\ = & \sqrt{{(6.00 N)}^{2} + {(- 8.00 N)}^{2} + {(4.00 N)}^{2}} \\ = & 10.8 N \end{array}$

The magnitude of velocity is

$\begin{array}{rcl} v & = & \sqrt{v_{x}^{2} + v_{y}^{2} + v_{z}^{2}} \\ = & \sqrt{{(- 6.00 m / s)}^{2} + {(3.00 m / s)}^{2} + {(3.00 m / s)}^{2}} \\ = & 7.35 m / s \end{array}$

According to the property of scalar dot product

$\begin{array}{rcl} \overset{鈬赌}{v} . \overset{鈬赌}{F} & = & v_{x} F_{x} + v_{y} F_{y} + v_{z} F_{z} \\ = & (- 6.00 m / s) (6.00 N) + (3.00 m / s) (- 8.00 N) + (3.00 m / s) (4.00 N) \\ = & - 48 N m / s \end{array}$

The dot product of two vectors is

$\begin{array}{rcl} \overset{鈬赌}{v} . \overset{鈬赌}{F} & = & v F \cos 胃 \\ \cos 胃 & = & \frac{\overset{鈬赌}{v} . \overset{鈬赌}{F}}{v F} \\ = & \frac{- 48 N . m / s}{7.35 \frac{m}{s} 脳 10.8 N} \end{array}$
