Question
A ball of mass 1 kg is projected with a velocity of 20√2 m/s from the origin of an xy coordinates axis system at an angle 45° with x-axis (horizontal). The angular momentum of the ball about the point of projection after 2s of projection is [take g=10 m/s2] (y-axis is taken as vertical)
Joshi sir comment
initial vertical and horizontal velocities are 20 m/s and 20 m/s
after 2 sec. vertical and horizontal velocities are 0 m/s and 20 m/s
and y and x displacements are 20 m and 40 m
so about point of projection angular momentum after 2 sec.
= mvxy - mvyx = 1*20*20 - 1*0*40 = 400
