The concepts of angular momentum and rate of change of angular momentum are required to solve the problem.
First, determine the magnitude of angular momentum by using the relation between mass, velocity, and radial distance. The direction of angular momentum is determined by using right hand rule. Then determine the rate of change of angular momentum by taking the derivative of the angular momentum expression.
The angular momentum of an object of mass m relative to some point O is given by the expression,
Here, v is the velocity of the object, r is the distance from point O to the object, and is the angle between r and v.
The direction of angular momentum is determined by using right hand rule. Curl the fingers of right hand such that they form a rotation from vector r to vector v, then the thumb will give the direction of angular momentum.
The rate of change of angular momentum is equal to the torque and it is given as,
Torque about a point due to force F can be calculated by using tangential force method and it is given as,
Here, r is the distance from the axis of rotation to the point where force is applied and is the tangential component of force.
