Angular Momentum (Problem 37)
A particle of mass 5.0 kg has position vector r=(2.0i^−3.0j^)m at a particular instant of time when its velocity is v=(3.0i^)m/s with respect to the origin. (a) What is the angular momentum of the particle? (b) If a force F=5.0j^N acts on the particle at this instant, what is the torque about the origin? Select the answer to part (a).
