Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 52. (a)
Solution:
- (a) Angular momentum
is defined as
So,
(a)
The slope of the line can be obtained by comparing with the equation of the straight line
If we draw a line perpendicular to this line, length of the perpendicular
Angular momentum of particle going along this line
