10.1 Rigid Object A rigid object is one that is

nondeformable The relative locations of all particles

making up the object remain constant All real objects are deformable to some

extent, but the rigid object model is very useful in many situations where the deformation is negligible

4

Angular Position Axis of rotation is

the center of the disc

Choose a fixed reference line

Point P is at a fixed distance r from the origin

Fig 10.1

5

Angular Position, 2 Point P will rotate about the origin in a circle

of radius r Every particle on the disc undergoes circular

motion about the origin, O Polar coordinates are convenient to use to

represent the position of P (or any other point)

P is located at (r, ) where r is the distance from the origin to P and is the measured counterclockwise from the reference line

6

Angular Position, 3 As the particle

moves, the only coordinate that changes is

As the particle moves through it moves though an arc length s.

The arc length and r are related: s = r

Fig 10.1

7

Radian This can also be expressed as

is a pure number, but commonly is given the artificial unit, radian

One radian is the angle subtended by an arc length equal to the radius of the arc

Conversions Comparing degrees and radians

Converting from degrees to radians

9

Angular Position, final We can associate the angle with the entire

rigid object as well as with an individual particle Remember every particle on the object rotates

through the same angle The angular position of the rigid object is the

angle between the reference line on the object and the fixed reference line in space The fixed reference line in space is often the x-

axis

10

Angular Displacement The angular

displacement is defined as the angle the object rotates through during some time interval

This is the angle that the reference line of length r sweeps out

Fig 10.2

11

Average Angular Speed The average angular speed, , of a

rotating rigid object is the ratio of the angular displacement to the time interval

12

Instantaneous Angular Speed The instantaneous angular speed is

defined as the limit of the average speed as the time interval approaches zero

13

Angular Speed, final Units of angular speed are radians/sec

rad/s or s-1 since radians have no dimensions

Angular speed will be positive if is increasing (counterclockwise)

Angular speed will be negative if is decreasing (clockwise)

14

Average Angular Acceleration The average angular acceleration, ,

of an object is defined as the ratio of the change in the angular speed to the time it takes for the object to undergo the change:

15

Instantaneous Angular Acceleration

The instantaneous angular acceleration is defined as the limit of the average angular acceleration as the time goes to 0

Units of angular acceleration are rad/s2 or s-2 since radians have no dimensions

16

Angular Motion, General Notes When a rigid object rotates about a

fixed axis in a given time interval, every portion on the object rotates through the same angle in a given time interval and has the same angular speed and the same angular acceleration So all characterize the motion of

the entire rigid object as well as the individual particles in the object

17

Directions, details Strictly speaking, the

speed and acceleration ( are the magnitudes of the velocity and acceleration vectors

The directions are actually given by the right-hand rule

Fig 10.3

18

Directions, final The direction of is along the axis of

rotation By convention, its direction is out of the plane of

the diagram when the rotation is counterclockwise its direction is into of the plane of the diagram

when the rotation is clockwise The direction of is the same as if the

angular speed is increasing and antiparallel if the speed is decreasing

19

10.2 Rotational Kinematics Under constant angular acceleration,

we can describe the motion of the rigid object using a set of kinematic equations These are similar to the kinematic

equations for linear motion The rotational equations have the same

mathematical form as the linear equations

10.3 Relationship Between Angular and Linear Quantities Displacements

Speeds

Accelerations

Every point on the rotating object has the same angular motion

Every point on the rotating object does not have the same linear motion

25

Speed Comparison

The linear velocity is always tangent to the circular path called the tangential

velocity The magnitude is

defined by the tangential speed

Acceleration Comparison

The tangential acceleration is the derivative of the tangential velocity

Fig 10.5

28

Speed and Acceleration Note All points on the rigid object will have the

same angular speed, but not the same tangential speed

All points on the rigid object will have the same angular acceleration, but not the same tangential acceleration

The tangential quantities depend on r, and r is not the same for all points on the object

29

Centripetal Acceleration An object traveling in a circle, even

though it moves with a constant speed, will have an acceleration Therefore, each point on a rotating rigid

object will experience a centripetal acceleration

30

Resultant Acceleration The tangential component of the

acceleration is due to changing speed The centripetal component of the

acceleration is due to changing direction Total acceleration can be found from

these components

31

10.4 Rotational Kinetic Energy An object rotating about some axis with an

angular speed, , has rotational kinetic energy even though it may not have any translational kinetic energy

Each particle has a kinetic energy of Ki = 1/2 mivi

2

Since the tangential velocity depends on the distance, r, from the axis of rotation, we can substitute vi = i r

32

Fig 10.6

33

Rotational Kinetic Energy, cont The total rotational kinetic energy of the

rigid object is the sum of the energies of all its particles

Where I is called the moment of inertia

34

Rotational Kinetic Energy, final There is an analogy between the kinetic

energies associated with linear motion (K = 1/2 mv 2) and the kinetic energy associated with rotational motion (KR= 1/2 I2)

Rotational kinetic energy is not a new type of energy, the form is different because it is applied to a rotating object

The units of rotational kinetic energy are Joules (J)

35

Moment of Inertia The definition of moment of inertia is

The dimensions of moment of inertia are ML2 and its SI units are kg.m2

We can calculate the moment of inertia of an object more easily by assuming it is divided into many small volume elements, each of mass mi

36

Moment of Inertia, cont We can rewrite the expression for I in terms

of m

With the small volume segment assumption,

If is constant, the integral can be evaluated with known geometry, otherwise its variation with position must be known

10.5 Torque Torque, , is the tendency of a force to

rotate an object about some axis Torque is a vector = r F sin = F d

F is the force is the angle the force makes with the

horizontal d is the moment arm (or lever arm)

57

Torque, cont

The moment arm, d, is the perpendicular distance from the axis of rotation to a line drawn along the direction of the force d = r sin

Fig 10.10

58

Torque, final The horizontal component of the force

(F cos ) has no tendency to produce a rotation

Torque will have direction If the turning tendency of the force is

counterclockwise, the torque will be positive

If the turning tendency is clockwise, the torque will be negative

59

Net Torque

The force F1 will tend to cause a counterclockwise rotation about O

The force F2 will tend to cause a clockwise rotation about O

Torque vs. Force Forces can cause a change in linear

motion Described by Newton’s Second Law

Forces can cause a change in rotational motion The effectiveness of this change depends

on the force and the moment arm The change in rotational motion depends

on the torque

62

Torque Units The SI units of torque are N.m

Although torque is a force multiplied by a distance, it is very different from work and energy

The units for torque are reported in N.m and not changed to Joules

63

Torque as a Vector Product Torque is the vector

product or cross product of two other vectors

10.7 Torque and Angular Acceleration on a Particle The magnitude of the torque produced by a force

around the center of the circle is = Ft r = (mat) r

The tangential acceleration is related to the angular acceleration = (mat) r = (mr) r = (mr 2)

Since mr 2 is the moment of inertia of the particle, = I The torque is directly proportional to the angular

acceleration and the constant of proportionality is the moment of inertia

Work in Rotational Motion Find the work done by a

force on the object as it rotates through an infinitesimal distance ds = r d

The radial component of the force does no work because it is perpendicular to the displacement Fig 10.19

101

Work in Rotational Motion, cont Work is also related to rotational kinetic

energy:

This is the same mathematical form as the work-kinetic energy theorem for translation

If an object is both rotating and translating, W = K + KR

102

Power in Rotational Motion The rate at which work is being done in

a time interval dt is the power

This is analogous to P = Fv in a linear system

10.8 Angular Momentum

The instantaneous angular momentum of a particle relative to the origin O is defined as the cross product of the particle’s instantaneous position vector and its instantaneous linear momentum

110

Torque and Angular Momentum The torque is related to the angular momentum

Similar to the way force is related to linear momentum

This is the rotational analog of Newton’s Second Law The torque and angular momentum must be

measured about the same origin This is valid for any origin fixed in an inertial frame

111

More About Angular Momentum The SI units of angular momentum are

(kg.m2)/ s The axes used to define the torque and

the angular momentum must be the same

When several forces are acting on the object, the net torque must be used

112

Angular Momentum of a System of Particles The total angular momentum of a

system of particles is defined as the vector sum of the angular momenta of the individual particles

Differentiating with respect to time

113

Angular Momentum of a Rotating Rigid Object, cont To find the angular momentum of the

entire object, add the angular momenta of all the individual particles

This is analogous to the translational momentum of p = m v

114

Summary of Useful Equations

120

10.9 Conservation of Angular Momentum The total angular momentum of a system is

conserved if the resultant external torque acting on the system is zero Net torque = 0 -> means that the system is

isolated For a system of particles, Ltot = Ln = constant

121

Conservation of Angular Momentum, cont If the mass of an isolated system

undergoes redistribution, the moment of inertia changes The conservation of angular momentum

requires a compensating change in the angular velocity

Ii i = If f This holds for rotation about a fixed axis and for rotation

about an axis through the center of mass of a moving system

The net torque must be zero in any case

122

Conservation Law Summary For an isolated system -

(1) Conservation of Energy: Ei = Ef

(2) Conservation of Linear Momentum:

(3) Conservation of Angular Momentum:

Gyroscope Angular momentum is the basis of the

operation of a gyroscope A gyroscope is a spinning object used to

control or maintain the orientation in space of the object or a system containing the object

Gyroscopes undergo precessional motion The symmetry axis rotates, sweeping out a

cone

10.10 Precessional Motion of a Gyroscope

The external forces acting on the top are the normal and the gravitational forces

The torque due to the gravitational force is in the xy plane

Only the direction of the angular momentum changes, causing the precession

10.11 Rolling Object

The red curve shows the path moved by a point on the rim of the object

This path is called a cycloid The green line shows the path of the center of mass

of the object

Fig 10.26

135

Pure Rolling Motion The surfaces must exert friction forces on

each other Otherwise the object would slide rather than roll

In pure rolling motion, an object rolls without slipping

In such a case, there is a simple relationship between its rotational and translational motions

136

Rolling Object, Center of Mass The velocity of the center of mass is

The acceleration of the center of mass is

137

Rolling Object, Other Points A point on the rim,

P, rotates to various positions such as Q and P ’

At any instant, the point on the rim located at point P is at rest relative to the surface since no slipping occurs

Fig 10.27

138

Total Kinetic Energy of a Rolling Object The total kinetic energy of a rolling

object is the sum of the translational energy of its center of mass and the rotational kinetic energy about its center of mass K = 1/2 ICM 2 + 1/2 MvCM

139

Parallel-Axis Theorem For an arbitrary axis, the parallel-axis

theorem often simplifies calculations The theorem states Ip = ICM + MD 2

Ip is about any axis parallel to the axis through the center of mass of the object

ICM is about the axis through the center of mass

D is the distance from the center of mass axis to the arbitrary axis

140

Total Kinetic Energy, Example Accelerated rolling

motion is possible only if friction is present between the sphere and the incline The friction produces

the net torque required for rotation

141

Total Kinetic Energy, Example cont Despite the friction, no loss of mechanical

energy occurs because the contact point is at rest relative to the surface at any instant Let U = 0 at the bottom of the plane Kf + U f = Ki + Ui

Kf = 1/2 (ICM / R 2) vCM2 + 1/2 MvCM

Ui = Mgh Uf = Ki = 0

is not rotating The angular

momentum of the spacecraft about its center of mass is zero

gyroscope is set into motion
