To find the torque of the weight of a particle about the point of projection when the particle is at its highest point, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the problem We have a particle of mass \( m \) projected with an initial speed \( u \) at an angle \( \theta \) with the horizontal. We need to find the torque due to the weight of the particle when it reaches its highest point. ### Step 2: Identify the forces acting on the particle At the highest point of its trajectory, the only force acting on the particle is its weight, which is given by: \[ ...
