Rotational Mechanics

Torque produces rotation. List times when you
make an object turn or rotate
NOT a force To make an object
move you apply a force, force causes acceleration
Torque is produced when a force is applied with leverage
The longer the handle the more leverage can be applied

Lever arm-the distance from the turning axis to the point of contact
Torque = Fd▪ W=Fd
d in torque is ┴ to the force
d in work is parallel to the force
Units= newton-meter

Use a triple beam balance to weight different masses
What relationships do you notice?
Torque in 2 different directions
Counter clockwise torque opposes clockwise torque
If the two are equal the scale will be balanced F1d1=F2d2

Why can’t a person stand against the wall and then bend forward without falling forward? Your feet are not
beneath your center of gravity
This creates torque τ= Fd
How could the torque be balanced so that a person standing against the wall doesn’t fall over? answer
Why do pregnant women get back pain?

When a football is kicked or throw why does is rotate end over end instead of spiral?
If a force is applied off center then torque is created thus causing the ball to move end over end How do you get it to
spiral? answer

What is inertia? Rotational inertia-
the resistance of an object to changes in its rotational motion An object rotating
wants to keep rotating, an object that is not rotating wants to continue to not rotate
Torque is required to change the rotational state of motion
Rotational inertia depends on mass And the distribution of
mass The greater the
distance between the axis and the mass the greater the rotational inertia

Think about a baseball bat Why do some people
use a shorter bat than other people?
What does it mean to “choke up”?
Why would a baseball player need to “choke up”?
Compare the legs of a giraffe with that of a mouse List some difference How does rotational
inertia apply?

Formulas for rotational inertia: pg. 157
If both cylinders were rolling down a ramp which would have more acceleration? (same mass, same radius)

Human body has 3 axes of rotation Median (z) Transverse (x) Longitudinal (y)
All at 90° angle to one another
Rotational inertia is least about the longitudinal axis thus it is the easiest rotation to perform
To increase longitudinal inertia extend an arm or a leg while spinning
A summersault rotates about the transverse axis Least when in tuck
position Greatest when fully
extended
A cartwheel rotates about the median axis

Angular momentum- inertia of rotation
Vector quantity
Has direction and magnitude
Rotational velocity- when a direction is assigned a speed
Angular momentum= rotational inertia x rotational velocity
Angular momentum = I x ω

An external net torque is required to change angular momentum
A moving bicycle is easier to balance on because the wheels have angular momentum there fore more torque is required.

Law of conservation of angular momentum- if no unbalanced external torque acts on a rotating system, the angular momentum of that system is constant
With no external torque, the product of rotational inertia and rotational velocity at one time will be the same as at any other time
