Explanation:

It is given that,

Force, F=(-8\ N)i+(6\ N)j

Position vector, r=(3i+4j)\ m

(a) The torque on the particle about the origin is given by :

\tau=F\times r\\\\\tau=(-8i+6j)\times (3i+4j)\\\\\tau=(-50k)\ N-m

(b) To find the angle between r and F use dot product formula as :

F{\cdot} r=|F||r|\ \cos\theta\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{F{\cdot} r}{|F| |r|}\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{(-8i+6j){\cdot} (3i+4j)}{\sqrt{(-8)^2+6^2} \times \sqrt{3^2+4^2} }\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{-24+24}{\sqrt{(-8)^2+6^2} \times \sqrt{3^2+4^2} }\\\\\cos\theta=0\\\\\theta=90^{\circ}

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Explanation:

\overrightarrow{F}=-8\widehat{i}+6\widehat{j}

\overrightarrow{r}=3\widehat{i}+4\widehat{j}

(a) the formula for the torque is given by

\overrightarrow{\tau }=\overrightarrow{r} \times \overrightarrow{F}

\overrightarrow{\tau }=\left (3\widehat{i}+4\widehat{j}  \right )\times \left (-8\widehat{i}+6\widehat{j}  \right )

\overrightarrow{\tau }=50\widehat{k}

(b) Let the angle between r and F is θ.

Using the formula

Cos\theta =\frac{\overrightarrow{F}.\overrightarrow{r}}{\mid \overrightarrow{r}\mid .\mid \overrightarrow{F}\mid }

\mid \overrightarrow{r}\mid = \sqrt{3^{2}+4^{2}}=5

\mid \overrightarrow{F}\mid = \sqrt{8^{2}+6^{2}}=10

\overrightarrow{F}.\overrightarrow{r} = \left ( -8\widehat{i}+6\widehat{j} \right ).\left ( 3\widehat{i}+4\widehat{j} \right )=-24+24=0

So, Cos θ = 0

θ = 90°

Thus, the angle between f and r is 90°.

Say the tortoise and the hare are racing. If the tortoise moves straight
Rina8888 [55]

Explanation:

It's displacement would be negative

displacement is a vector quantity.

'Backwards', we can assume, would be negative.

and forwards, positive. So going backwards would mean a negative displacement.
