Shuru karne se pehle, aao un sirf symbols aur operations ko ek jagah pin karte hain jo is page par use hote hain, taaki kuch bhi unexplained na lage.


Level 1 — Recognition

L1·A — Kaun sa scenario conserve karta hai?

Recall Solution

Har baar ek test apply karo: kya is axis ke baare mein net external torque hai?

  • (a) Conserved. Muscular pull internal hai; ice frictionless hai isliye koi external twist nahi. fixed. ✅
  • (b) NOT conserved. Bacche ka push off-axis apply hone wali ek external force hai → external torque → badhta hai. ❌
  • (c) Conserved. Gravity ek central force hai jo straight Sun ki taraf point karti hai, isliye ; cross-product zero-rule se . fixed — yeh Kepler's 2nd law hai. ✅
  • (d) NOT conserved. Contact par friction off-axis act karta hai aur spin oppose karta hai → ke opposite sign ka external torque → decay hokar zero ho jaata hai. ❌

L1·B — Master equation padho

Recall Solution

Agar ka time-derivative zero hai, toh se net external torque zero hai, aur magnitude aur direction dono mein constant hai (space mein ek fixed arrow hai).


Level 2 — Application

L2·A — Skater, general form

Recall Solution

Condition: frictionless, internal pull → spin axis ke baare mein conserved (fixed vertical axis, isliye apply hota hai). Woh poore time ek hi taraf spin karti hai, isliye saare terms positive hain aur signs out ho jaate hain. Kinetic energy (toolkit se) . Kyunki fixed hai, likho , isliye : Energy badh gayi — uske muscles ne work kiya. Dekho Rotational kinetic energy.

L2·B — Putty drop

Recall Solution

Condition: gravity axis ke parallel hai (uspar koi torque nahi); impact internal hai → axis ke baare mein conserved. Disc aur putty aakhir mein same direction mein ghoomte hain → saare terms positive. Point-mass addition: .


Level 3 — Analysis

L3·A — Elliptical orbit speeds

Recall Solution

Gravity central hai → conserved (apsides par , isliye poora count hota hai). Orbit ek hi direction mein circulate karta hai, isliye dono sides same sign rakhte hain. Nau guna door → ek-nouwaan speed. Slow aur door, fast aur paas: numbers mein Kepler's 2nd law.

L3·B — Off-axis catch (component thinking)

Neeche ki figure poora argument ek picture mein hai. Padhte waqt apni ungli se trace karo.

Figure — Conservation of angular momentum — conditions
Recall Solution

Torque hai, aur iski size hai jahan , aur ke beech ka angle hai.

  • Vertical axis (figure mein red weight arrow): weight seedha neeche, vertical axis ke parallel point karta hai. Us axis ke baare mein kisi bhi ghoomne mein flat pata hai, aur ka vertical component zero hota hai kyunki force ka axis ke around koi sideways push nahi hai. Dekho kaise red arrow gray axis arrow ke parallel chalti hai — parallel matlab zero vertical torque → vertical conserved (condition 3: component-wise conservation).
  • Horizontal rim axis: ab wohi red weight arrow us axis se horizontally door sit karti hai (figure mein black ) aur uske perpendicular point karti hai. Yahan , , isliye → wahan torque hai → horizontal axis ke baare mein protected nahi hai. Conservation axis-by-axis hoti hai, kabhi automatically "har cheez ke baare mein" nahi.

Level 4 — Synthesis

L4·A — Do discs coupled

Recall Solution

Condition: jo friction unhe couple karti hai woh do-disc system ke liye internal hai; koi external axial torque nahi → conserved. Dono same direction mein spin karte hain (B rest par start karta hai), isliye saare terms positive hain. . . Lost fraction . Do-tihaayi friction heat mein gayi — phir bhi exactly conserved hai.

L4·B — Whirling puck par radial pull

Neeche ki figure do circles (before/after) aur, critically, teen arrows dikhata hai jinke directions sab decide karte hain: , velocity , aur string tension . ki direction ko se compare karo.

Figure — Conservation of angular momentum — conditions
Recall Solution

Condition (figure se padho): red tension arrow exactly black position arrow ke along lie karta hai (dono central hole ki taraf point karte hain). Parallel arrows → conserved. Pull radial hai isliye koi torque exert nahi karta, lekin jaise puck inward spiral karta hai woh hole ki taraf move karta hai, yaani tension ke along, isliye tension work karta hai. Toolkit se work–energy theorem use karte hue: constant, tumhare pulling se energy badh gayi — skater jaisa hi lesson. (Figure mein notice karo ki ko ke perpendicular draw kiya gaya hai: yahi perpendicularity hai jo ko full ke saath banati hai.)


Level 5 — Mastery

L5·A — Conservation rescue ke liye origin choose karna

Recall Solution

Origin choice: axis ko hinge par rakho. Hinge impact ke dauran ek bada unknown reaction force exert karta hai, lekin woh force hinge par act karta hai jahan hai, isliye uska torque hai — hinge ke baare mein zero torque. Gravity bahut chhote collision time par act karti hai → negligible impulse-torque. Isliye hinge ke baare mein conserved hai (parent note se "smart origin choose karo" rule). Take the bullet's incoming swing sense as . Bullet ka incoming (positive). Embed hone ke baad, total . Positive → rod us hi direction mein swing karti hai jis direction mein bullet ja rahi thi, as expected.

L5·B — Full audit: kya conserved hai aur kya nahi

Recall Solution

. .

  • Linear momentum: conserved nahi — hinge ek external horizontal force impulse deliver karta hai. (Dekho Conservation of linear momentum kyun hinge ise toot deta hai.)
  • Angular momentum about hinge: conserved — hinge force ka wahan zero moment arm hai.
  • Kinetic energy: conserved nahi — embedding inelastic hai, became heat. Yahi is topic ka poora point hai: teen conservation questions ke teen independent answers hain, jo teen alag conditions se decide hote hain.

Active Recall

Recall One-line reflexes

Inelastic spin collision — kaun si quantity survive karti hai? ::: Angular momentum (); kinetic energy lost ho jaati hai. Radial/central force torque aur energy ke saath kya karta hai? ::: Zero torque (isliye constant) lekin woh phir bhi work kar sakta hai (energy se change hoti hai). Impact ke dauran hinge/pivot par axis kyun choose karte hain? ::: Wahan reaction force ka zero moment arm hota hai, isliye zero torque, isliye us axis ke baare mein conserved hota hai. Skater/puck speed up hoti hai — kya energy conserved hai? ::: Nahi; muscles/tumhare pull se work hota hai. conserved hai, energy nahi. Cross product kab zero hota hai? ::: Jab aur parallel hon (), yaani central force ya axis par apply hone wali force. Same axis par do angular momenta kaise add karte hain? ::: Signed numbers ki tarah (right-hand rule): same sense adds, opposite sense subtracts.
