  2. First some quick geometry review: We need this formula for arc length to see the connection between rotational motion and linear motion. x = rθ θ We will also need to be able to convert from revolutions to radians. There are 2π radians in one complete revolution. r Prepared by Vince Zaccone For Campus Learning Assistance Services at UCSB

  3. Definitions of angular velocity and angular acceleration are analogous to what we had for linear motion. x = rθ This is the Greek letter omega (not w) θ Angular Velocity = ω = r Angular Acceleration = α = This is the Greek letter alpha (looks kinda like a fish) Prepared by Vince Zaccone For Campus Learning Assistance Services at UCSB

  7. We already know how to deal with linear motion. We have formulas for kinematics, forces, energy and momentum. We will find similar formulas for rotational motion. Actually, we already know the formulas – they are the same as the linear ones! All you have to do is translate the variables.

  19. Some other topics for linear motion are Energy, Forces and Momentum. All of these have analogues for rotational motion as well. Forces and Momentum will be covered in chapter 10. That leaves us with Energy. Any moving object will have Kinetic Energy. This applies to rotating objects. Here’s a Formula: We know that ω is angular velocity. Comparing with the formula for linear kinetic energy, what do you think I is? Prepared by Vince Zaccone For Campus Learning Assistance Services at UCSB

That leaves us with Energy. Any moving object will have Kinetic Energy. This applies to rotating objects. Here’s a Formula: The I in our formula takes the place of m (mass) in the linear formula. We call it Moment of Inertia (or rotational inertia). It plays the same role in rotational motion that mass plays in linear motion (I quantifies how difficult it is to produce an angular acceleration. The value for I will depend on the shape of your object, but the basic rule of thumb is that the farther the mass is from the axis of rotation, the larger the inertia. Page 299 in your book has a table of formulas for different shapes. These are all based on the formula for a point particle. Prepared by Vince Zaccone For Campus Learning Assistance Services at UCSB
