Q.1: Define torque? Write down the magnitude of torque?
Ans: TORQUE:
“The turning effect of force is called torque”.
or
It can be defined as:
“Torque is the vector product of position vector # and the.f@rce F. It is denoted by “r”
(tau). It is a vector.
MAGNITUDE OF TORQUE:
Consider a particle of mass ‘m’ which is acted upon bya force
‘F, Let r be the position veetor of the particle; Wecaniresolve
this force into two rectangular component§)i.e%
> Fy the force which acts in the direction of and can pull
the mass.
> F, the force which acts in the direction perpendicular to 7
and produces rotation.
Qo
Let ‘r’ and ‘F,’ be the magnitudes of 7 and F, respectively. The magnitude of torque
vector 7 produced by the forcé? about the centre ‘0’ is expressed as
r=rsind
Or
According to-the second definition be expressed as
t=%xF
Direétion Of Torque:
Th direction of torque can also be given by the ‘right hand rule’.
Sing Convention:
The torque may be clock wise or counter-clock-wise. Hence @ torque which produces a
counter-clockwise rotation is considered to be positive, while that producing clockwise
rotation is taken as negative,
Vector Representation Of Torques:
We can represent the torque vector 7 in the determinant form, as given below.

momentum.
Angular Momentum like linear momentum obeys the law
of conservation also Forstudying the angular momentum

Let Zbe the position of a particle of mass ‘m’ with respect to the origin ‘O' shown in the
given figures Moreover let ji be the linear momentum of the particle measured in an
inertial frame of reference with origin O as already shown in the figure.
The angular momentum of the particle about the origin O is defined as the vector product
of and. Hence, it” stands for angular momentum then

i=F x mi
Where B = mi & é represents the velocity of the particle. We know that vector product
of two vectors is itself a vector so angular momentum is also a vector. Its direction lies
along the normal to the plane formed by vectors # & P according to right hand rule. The
magnitude of angular momentum is given by

Q.8: What do you understand by Centre of Mass?(Give oné example also? What is the
difference between centre of gravity and. centre. of mass? How will you represent
coordinates of centre of mass?
‘Ans: CenTRE OF Mass:
When a body rotates or vibrates aslit moves, then centre of mass moves in the same way
that a single panicle would move under the influence of the same external forces. Centre
of mass of a body or a systemflof particles is defined to be a point which moves as if total
mass of the body or the system ofpanicles were concentrated there and all applied forces,
were acting at thatypoint. Hence the motion of the whole system or the body can be
described by the motion of their centers of mass.
Example:
Let us consider a)reetangular block of wood lying on a smooth horizontal surface. The
block is atted upon by a number of forces. For describing the motion of the block as a
whole we suppose that these forces were acting at the centre of mass which is the
geometricalleentre of the block and where the total mass is, supposed to be concentrated.
Following steps are taken for describing complete motion of the body.
> We find the resultant of all the forces acting at the centre of the body.
¥ Acceleration is calculated by applying Newton's Second Law of Motion.
> By using initial conditions the velocity of centre of mass is determined
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CENTRE OF GRAVITY AND CENTRE OF Mass:
Actually centre of gravity and Centre of Mass are so similar in many ways that the two
terms can he used in place of each other. If the object is lying completely in uniform
gravitational field then the centre of gravity coincides with centre of mass. In other cases
the centre of gravity does not coincide with the centre of mass.
