Force $\vec{F} = - 10 \hat{j} N$ is exerted on a particle at $\vec{r}\) = (5$\hat{i}$ + 5$\hat{j}$) \, \(\text{m}$ . What is the torque on the particle about the origin?

검증된 단계별 안내

Step 1: Recall the formula for torque, which is the cross product of the position vector (𝓇) and the force vector (𝐹). Mathematically, torque (𝜏) is given by:

τ = r × F

Step 2: Write down the given vectors. The position vector is

r = 5 î + 5 ĵ

(in meters), and the force vector is

F = -10 ĵ

(in newtons).

Step 3: Set up the cross product. The cross product of two vectors in 3D space can be calculated using the determinant of a matrix. Write the determinant as:

| \begin{matrix} î & ĵ & k̂ \\ 5 & 5 & 0 \\ 0 & -10 & 0 \end{matrix} |

Step 4: Expand the determinant to compute the cross product. Use cofactor expansion along the first row:

τ = î (5(0) - 0(-10)) - ĵ (5(0) - 0(0)) + k̂ (5(-10) - 5(0))

Step 5: Simplify the terms. After performing the calculations, the torque vector will only have a component in the

k̂

direction. The final expression for the torque is:

τ = -50 k̂

(in N·m).

주요 개념

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Torque

Torque is a measure of the rotational force applied to an object, calculated as the cross product of the position vector and the force vector. It determines how effectively a force can cause an object to rotate about a pivot point, in this case, the origin. The direction of torque is given by the right-hand rule, indicating the axis of rotation.

Cross Product

The cross product is a mathematical operation that takes two vectors and produces a third vector that is perpendicular to the plane formed by the original vectors. In the context of torque, the cross product of the position vector and the force vector yields the torque vector, which has both magnitude and direction, essential for understanding rotational dynamics.

Position Vector

The position vector represents the location of a point in space relative to a reference point, typically the origin in physics problems. It is expressed in terms of its components along the coordinate axes. In this question, the position vector (5î + 5ĵ) m indicates the particle's position in a two-dimensional plane, which is crucial for calculating torque.
