Chapter 11, Problem 29P

ILW In the instant of Fig, 11-41, two particles move in an xy plane. Particle P₁ has mass 6.5 kg and speed v₁ = 2.2 m/s, and it is at distance d₁ = 1.5 m from point O. Particle P₂ has mass 3.1 kg and speed v₂ = 3.6 m/s. and it is at distance d₂ = 2.8 m from point O. What are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the net angular momentum of the two particles about O?
