Current Question (ID: 19346)

Question:
$\text{A force } \vec{F} = \hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k} \text{ N acts at a point } 4\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} - \hat{k} \text{ m. Let the magnitude of the torque about the point } \hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + \hat{k} \text{ m be } \sqrt{x} \text{ N-m.}$ $\text{The value of } x \text{ is:}$
Options:
  • 1. $145$
  • 2. $195$
  • 3. $245$
  • 4. $295$
Solution:
$\text{Hint: } \vec{\tau} = \left( \vec{r} \times \vec{F} \right)$ $\text{Step 1: Find the position vector of the point of application of force.}$ $\vec{r} = \left( 4\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} - \hat{k} \right) - \left( \hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + \hat{k} \right)$ $= 3\hat{i} + \hat{j} - 2\hat{k}$ $\text{Step 2: Find the torque.}$ $\vec{\tau} = \left( \vec{r} \times \vec{F} \right)$ $= \begin{vmatrix} \hat{i} & \hat{j} & \hat{k} \\ 3 & 1 & -2 \\ 1 & 2 & 3 \end{vmatrix}$ $= (3 + 4)\hat{i} - 11\hat{j} + 5\hat{k}$ $\text{Step 3: Find the magnitude of the torque.}$ $|\vec{\tau}| = \sqrt{7^2 + (-11)^2 + 5^2}$ $= \sqrt{195}$ $\text{Hence, option (2) is the correct answer.}$
