To show that \(\vec{OP} \times \vec{v}\) is independent of the position \(P\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the vectors Let: - \(\vec{OP}\) be the position vector from point \(O\) (fixed point) to point \(P\) (the position of the particle). - \(\vec{v}\) be the velocity vector of the particle, which is constant and directed along the straight line of motion. ### Step 2: Analyze the angle between vectors ...
