Question:
$\text{A force } \vec{F} = -c\hat{k} \text{ is acting on a particle at the origin. The torque of this force about the point } (-2, 3, 0) \text{ is given by } -c(A\hat{i} + B\hat{j}).$ $\text{If } \frac{A}{B} = \frac{x}{2}, \text{ then the value of } x \text{ is:}$
Options:
  • 1. $\frac{2}{3}$
  • 2. $3$
  • 3. $1.5$
  • 4. $1$
Solution:
$\text{Hint: } \vec{\tau} = \vec{r} \times \vec{F}$ $\text{Step: Find the value of } x.$ $\text{Given: The torque of the given force about point } (-2, 3, 0) \text{ is } -c(A\hat{i} + B\hat{j}).$ $\vec{\tau} = \vec{r} \times \vec{F}$ $\Rightarrow -c(A\hat{i} + B\hat{j}) = \left((0 - (-2))\hat{i} + (0 - 3)\hat{j}\right) \times (-c\hat{k})$ $\Rightarrow (A\hat{i} + B\hat{j}) = (2\hat{i} - 3\hat{j}) \times \hat{k}$ $\Rightarrow (A\hat{i} + B\hat{j}) = -2\hat{j} - 3\hat{i} \left[\hat{i} \times \hat{k} = -\hat{j}, \hat{j} \times \hat{k} = \hat{i}\right]$ $\text{Comparing both sides we get;} A = -3, \ B = -2$ $\text{The required ratio is } \frac{A}{B} = \frac{-3}{-2} = \frac{3}{2} = \frac{x}{2}$ $\text{Therefore, the value of } x \text{ is } 3.$ $\text{Hence, option (2) is the correct answer.}$
