Topic of Chapter: Objects rotating • First, rotating, without translating. • Then, rotating AND translating together. • Assumption:Rigid Body • Definite shape. Does not deform or change shape. • Rigid Body motion = Translational motion of center of mass (everything done up to now) + Rotational motion about an axis through center of mass. Can treat the two parts of motion separately.
COURSE THEME: NEWTON’S LAWS OF MOTION! • Chs. 4 - 9:Methods to analyze the dynamics of objects in TRANSLATIONAL MOTION. Newton’s Laws! • Chs. 4 - 6: Newton’s Laws using Forces • Chs. 7 & 8: Newton’s Laws using Energy & Work • Ch. 9: Newton’s Laws using Momentum. NOW • Chs. 10 & 11:Methods to analyze dynamics of objects inROTATIONAL LANGUAGE. Newton’s Laws in Rotational Language! • First, Rotational Language. Analogues of each translational concept we already know! • Then, Newton’s Laws in Rotational Language.
Rigid Body Rotation A rigid body is an extended object whose size, shape, & distribution of mass don’t change as the object moves and rotates. Example: CD
Pure Rotational Motion All points in the object move in circles about the rotation axis (through the Center of Mass) Reference Line The axis of rotation is through O & is to the picture. All points move in circles about O
In purely rotational motion, all points on the object move in circles around the axis of rotation (“O”). The radius of the circle is R. All points on a straight line drawn through the axis move through the same angle in the same time.
Sect. 10.1: Angular Quantities • Description of rotational motion: Need concepts: Angular Displacement Angular Velocity, Angular Acceleration • Defined in direct analogy to linear quantities. • Obey similar relationships! Positive Rotation!
Rigid object rotation: • Each point (P) moves in a circle with the same center! • Look at OP: When P (at radius R) travels an arc length ℓ, OP sweeps out angle θ. θ Angular Displacementof the object Reference Line
θ Angular Displacement • Commonly, measure θ in degrees. • Mathof rotation: Easier if θis measured in Radians • 1 Radian Angle swept out when the arc length = radius • When ℓ R, θ1 Radian • θin Radians is definedas: θ= ratio of 2 lengths (dimensionless) θMUST be in radians for this to be valid! Reference Line
θin Radians for a circle of radius R, arc lengthℓisdefinedas: θ (ℓ/r) • Conversion between radians & degrees: θfor a full circle = 360º = (ℓ/R) radians Arc lengthℓfor a full circle = 2πR θfor a full circle = 360º = 2πradians Or 1 radian (rad) = (360/2π)º 57.3º Or 1º = (2π/360) rad 0.017 rad
Angular Displacement: Ex. 10-1: Birds of prey—in radians A particular bird’s eye can just distinguish objects that subtend an angle no smaller than about θ = 3 10-4 rad. a. How many degrees is this? b.How small an object can the bird just distinguish when flying at a height of 100 m?
Angular Velocity(Analogous to linear velocity!) Average Angular Velocity = angular displacement θ = θ2 – θ1 (rad) divided by time t: (Lower case Greek omega, NOT w!) Instantaneous Angular Velocity (Units = rad/s) The SAME for all points in the object! Valid ONLY if θis in rad!
Angular Acceleration(Analogous to linear acceleration!) • Average Angular Acceleration= change in angular velocity ω = ω2– ω1 divided by time t: (Lower case Greek alpha!) • Instantaneous Angular Acceleration = limit of α as t, ω0 (Units = rad/s2) TheSAMEfor all points in body! Valid ONLYfor θin rad & ω in rad/s!
