Ch 17 Notes – Part 2 17.4 Rotation About a Fixed Axis • When a body rotates about O, the mass center G moves on a circular path • Therefore we can best use normal and tangential axes • (aG)t = rGα • (aG)n = 2rG
Ch 17 Notes – Part 2 17.4 Rotation About a Fixed Axis • Ft = m(aG)t = mrGα • Fn = m(aG)n= m2rG • MG =IGα • But, • Io = IG + mrG2 by the parallel axis theorem • So, Mo = Ioα α
Ch 17 Notes – Part 2 17.5 General Plane Motion • Fx = m(aG)x = mrGα • Fy=m(aG)y • MG =IGα α
Ch 17 Notes – Part 2 17.5 General Plane Motion • Or, considering a point P, other than G: • Fx = m(aG)x • Fy=m(aG)y • MP =(MP), where (MP) = Iα + maG(or its components) about P α
Ch 17 Notes – Part 2 17.5 General Plane Motion • If you have a uniform disk of circular shape that rolls on a rough surface without slipping, (Mk)IC becomes IICα by the PAT, so MIC = IICα α
