A force of \(- P \hat{k}\) acts on the origin of the coordinate system. The torque about the point \((2,-3)\) is \(P(a \hat{i}+b \hat{j})\), the ratio of \(\frac{a}{b}\) is \(\frac{x}{2}\). The value of \(x\) is
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(3\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\tau=\vec{r} \times \vec{F}\)
\(\text { Where } \overrightarrow{ r }=-2 \hat{ i }+3 \hat{ j }\)
\(\tau=(-2 \hat{ i }+3 \hat{ j }) \times(- Pk )\)
\(= P (-2 \hat{ j }-3 \hat{ i })= P (-3 \hat{ i }-2 \hat{ j })\)
\(\Rightarrow \text { So } a =-3, b =-2\)
\(\frac{ a }{ b }=\frac{3}{2}\)
