Mayank rotates a rigid body about an axis passing through the point .
Akul finds that the particle at the point has the velocity and that at the point has the velocity .
Find the magnitude of the angular velocity of the body.
Wanna have more fun with Mayank and Akul. This question is a part of the set Mayank and Akul

We need ω × ⎝ ⎛ 1 2 2 ⎠ ⎞ = ⎝ ⎛ 4 − 4 2 ⎠ ⎞ ω × ⎝ ⎛ 0 3 3 ⎠ ⎞ = ⎝ ⎛ 6 − 4 4 ⎠ ⎞ and hence ω × ⎝ ⎛ 1 0 0 ⎠ ⎞ = ⎝ ⎛ 0 − 3 4 − 3 2 ⎠ ⎞ ω × ⎝ ⎛ 0 1 1 ⎠ ⎞ = ⎝ ⎛ 2 − 3 4 3 4 ⎠ ⎞ Thus ⎝ ⎛ 0 ω 2 ω 3 ⎠ ⎞ = ω − ( ω ⋅ i ) i = i × ( ω × i ) = ⎝ ⎛ 1 0 0 ⎠ ⎞ × ⎝ ⎛ 0 − 3 4 − 3 2 ⎠ ⎞ = ⎝ ⎛ 0 3 2 − 3 4 ⎠ ⎞ and hence ⎝ ⎛ 2 − 3 4 3 4 ⎠ ⎞ = ω × ⎝ ⎛ 0 1 1 ⎠ ⎞ = ⎝ ⎛ ω 1 3 2 − 3 4 ⎠ ⎞ × ⎝ ⎛ 0 1 1 ⎠ ⎞ = ⎝ ⎛ 2 − ω 1 ω 1 ⎠ ⎞ so that ω 1 = 3 4 and hence ω = ⎝ ⎛ 3 4 3 2 − 3 4 ⎠ ⎞ which has magnitude 2 .
