Question:

The angular velocity of a body changes from \(6 \, \text{rad/s}\) to \(21 \, \text{rad/s}\) in a time of \(1.5 \, \text{s}\). If the moment of inertia of the body is \(100 \, \text{g m}^2\), then the rate of change of angular momentum of the body is

Show Hint

Always convert moment of inertia to SI units before calculation. The rate of change of angular momentum is torque.

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Given: \[ \omega_1 = 6 \, \text{rad/s},
\omega_2 = 21 \, \text{rad/s},
\Delta t = 1.5 \, \text{s},
I = 100 \, \text{g m}^2 = 0.1 \, \text{kg m}^2 \] Step 2: Angular momentum \( L = I \omega \) Step 3: Rate of change of angular momentum: \[ \frac{dL}{dt} = I . \frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t} = 0.1 . \frac{21 - 6}{1.5} = 0.1 . \frac{15}{1.5} = 0.1 . 10 = 1 \, \text{N m} \] % Final Answer \[ \boxed{1 \, \text{N m}} \]
