Obtain Newton's second law for system of particle and write it.
Linear momentum of system of particle
$\vec{p}=m \vec{v}$
Taking differention on both side with time
$\frac{d \vec{p}}{d t}=\mathrm{M} \frac{d \vec{v}}{d t}$ (where $\mathrm{M}=$ constant $)$
$\therefore \frac{d \vec{p}}{d t}=\mathrm{MA}$
$\ldots$ (2)
but $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{MA}}=\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}_{\mathrm{ext}}$
From equation (2) and (3),
$\frac{d \vec{p}}{d t}=\overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}_{\mathrm{ext}}$
is a Newton's second law for the system of particles.
"The external force acting on a system is equal to rate of change of total linear momentum of the system." This is Newton's second law for a system.
How many degrees of freedom does a rotational motion about fixed axis ?
The variation of angular position $\theta $ of a point on a rotating rigid body with time t is shown in figure. Is the body rotating clockwise or anti-clockwise ?
Let $\mathop A\limits^ \to $ be a unit vector along the axis of rotation of a purely rotating body and $\mathop B\limits^ \to $ be a unit vector along the velocity of a particle $ P$ of the body away from the axis. The value of $\mathop A\limits^ \to .\mathop B\limits^ \to $ is
What is rigid body?
Which types of force acting on the system of particle ?
