A system of particles in motion has mass center G as shown in the figure. The particle i has mass mi and its position with respect to a fixed point O is given by the position vector ri. The position of the particle with respect to G is given by the vector ρi. The time rate of change of the angular momentum of the system of particles about G is(The quantity \({\ddot \rho _i}\) indicates the second derivative of ρi with respect to time and likewise for ri) |
