Question
$A$ time varying force $F = 2t$ is applied on a spool rolling as shown in figure. The angular momentum of the spool at time $t$ about bottommost point is:

Answer

Change in angular momentum(L) = Torque $\frac{d L}{d t}=\tau$

$\Rightarrow d L=\tau d t$

Taking torque about lowest point distance of force applied from lowest point $=(R+$$r)$

$\tau=2 t(R+r)$$...(1)$

$\Rightarrow d L=2 t(R+r) d t$

at after time t, the angular momentum becomes

$L=\int_{0}^{L} d L=\int_{0}^{t} 2 t(R+r)$

$\Rightarrow L=(R+r) t^{2}$
