    If there is change of angular momentum from to 5 J in 5 s, then the torque is :

    A)  \[\frac{3\,J}{5}\]

    B)  \[\frac{4\,J}{5}\]

    C)  \[\frac{5\,J}{4}\]

    D)  none of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Key Idea: Torque is defined as rate of change of angular momentum. We know that rate of change of angular momentum (J) of a body is equal to the external torque (r) acting upon the body. i.e., \[\frac{d\,J}{dt}=\tau \] Given, \[{{J}_{1}}=J,\,\,{{J}_{2}}=5\,J\] \[\therefore \] \[\Delta \,J={{J}_{2}}-{{J}_{1}}=5\,J-J=4\,J\] Hence, \[\tau =\frac{4}{5}J\]
