3. Kinetic Energy: Prove that for a system of particles the
total kinetic energy can be written as � = 1 2 ��! + 1 2(�"�" #! "
where M is the total mass, v is the velocity of the center of mass,
�" is the mass of each particle and �" # is the velocity of each
particle as measured from the center of mass. (4 Points) 4.
Conservation of Angular Momentum: Starting from the definition of
torque, prove that in absence of torque the angular momentum
remains conserved. (4 Points)
