Correct Answer - Option 3 : force and linear momentum

The correct answer is option 3) i.e. force and linear momentum

CONCEPT:

  • Angular momentum: The angular momentum of a rigid object is defined as the product of the moment of inertia and the angular velocity. It is related to the rotational motion of a rigid body.
    • Angular momentum also obeys the law of conservation of momentum i.e. angular momentum before and after is conserved.
    • Angular momentum, L = I × ω

Where I is the moment of inertia and ω is the angular velocity.

  • Rotational analog of Newton's Second Law: It states that the sum of the torques (Στ) on a rotating system about a fixed axis equals the product of the moment of inertia (I) and the angular acceleration (α). It is given by

\(⇒ Σ τ = I \times α\)

We know that the rate of change of angular velocity = angular acceleration.

  • Rate of change of angular momentum, 

\(⇒ \frac{dL}{dt} = \frac{d(I\omega)}{dt} = I \times \frac{d\omega}{dt} = I \times α\)

\(\Rightarrow Σ τ = I \times α = \frac{dL}{dt}\)

EXPLANATION:

Torque is the rate of change of angular momentum.

  • Speed is the time rate of change of movement of an object, whereas velocity is the time rate of change of movement and direction of an object.
  • Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity for a duration of time.
  • From Newton's second law, force is the rate of change of linear momentum of an object.
  • Energy is the capacity of an object to do work.
  • Hence, the correct answer is force and linear momentum.
