Answer:
The angular momentum of the crate is [tex]M_{C} V_{1} d[/tex]
Explanation:
mass of the crate = [tex]M_{C}[/tex]
speed of forklift = [tex]V_{1}[/tex]
The distance between the center of the mass and the point A = d
Recall that the angular moment is the moment of the momentum.
[tex]L = P*d[/tex] ..... equ 1
where L is the angular momentum,
P is the momentum of the system,
d is the perpendicular distance between the crate and the point on the axis about which the momentum acts. It is equal to d from the image
Also, we know that the momentum P is the product of mass and velocity
P = mv ....equ 2
in this case, the mass = [tex]M_{C}[/tex]
the velocity = [tex]V_{1}[/tex]
therefore, the momentum P = [tex]M_{C}[/tex][tex]V_{1}[/tex]
we substitute equation 2 into equation 1 to give
[tex]L = M_{C} V_{1} d[/tex]
