An object of mass $m$ is projected from the origin in a vertical $xy$ plane at an angle $45^{\circ}$ with the $x$-axis with an initial velocity $v_0$. The magnitude and direction of the angular momentum of the object with respect to the origin,when it reaches the maximum height,will be [$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity].

  • A
    $\frac{m v_0^3}{2 \sqrt{2} g}$ along negative $z$-axis
  • B
    $\frac{m v_0^3}{2 \sqrt{2} g}$ along positive $z$-axis
  • C
    $\frac{m v_0^3}{4 \sqrt{2} g}$ along positive $z$-axis
  • D
    $\frac{m v_0^3}{4 \sqrt{2} g}$ along negative $z$-axis

Find the components along the $x, y, z$ axes of the angular momentum $\vec{l}$ of a particle whose position vector is $\vec{r}$ with components $x, y, z$ and momentum is $\vec{p}$ with components $p_x, p_y, p_z$. Show that if the particle moves only in the $x-y$ plane,the angular momentum has only a $z$-component.
