Torque, Couple & Equilibrium of Rigid Bodies

In case of rotational dynamics, which one of the following statements is correct? [ω⃗=\vec{\omega} = angular velocity,v⃗=\vec{v} = linear velocity

r⃗=\vec{r} = radius vector, α⃗=\vec{\alpha} = angular acceleration

a⃗=\vec{a} = linear acceleration,L⃗=\vec{L} = angular momentum

p⃗=\vec{p} = linear momentum, τ⃗=\vec{\tau} = torque,

f⃗=\vec{f} = centripetal force]

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. v⃗=ω⃗×r⃗\vec{v} = \vec{\omega}\times\vec{r}, L⃗=r⃗×p⃗\vec{L} = \vec{r}\times\vec{p}, τ⃗=r⃗×f⃗\vec{\tau} = \vec{r}\times\vec{f} are the standard forms.
  2. (a) reverses v⃗\vec{v}, (b) reverses L⃗\vec{L}, (d) writes L⃗\vec{L} as a dot product (a scalar).
  3. Only (c) has all of these right, so the answer is (c).
