  2. §8.1 Rotational KE and Inertia For a rotating solid body: For a rotating body vi=ri where ri is the distance from the rotation axis to the mass mi.

  3. is called rotational inertia or moment of inertia. The quantity Use the above expression when the number of masses that make up a body is small. Use the moments of inertia in table 8.1 for extended bodies.

  4. r1 r2 m1 m2 Example: (a) Find the moment of inertia of the system below. The masses are m1 and m2 and they are separated by a distance r. Assume the rod connecting the masses is massless. r1 and r2 are the distances between mass 1 and the rotation axis and mass 2 and the rotation axis (the dashed, vertical line) respectively.

  5. Example continued: Take m1 = 2.00 kg, m2 = 1.00 kg, r1= 0.33 m , and r2 = 0.67 m. (b) What is the moment of inertia if the axis is moved so that is passes through m1?

  6. Example (text problem 8.4): What is the rotational inertia of a solid iron disk of mass 49.0 kg with a thickness of 5.00 cm and a radius of 20.0 cm, about an axis through its center and perpendicular to it? From table 8.1:

  7. hinge Push §8.2 Torque A rotating (spinning) body will continue to rotate unless it is acted upon by a torque. Q: Where on a door do you push to open it? A: Far from the hinge.

  8. F Hinge end  Torque method 1: Top view of door r = the distance from the rotation axis (hinge) to the point where the force F is applied. F is the component of the force F that is perpendicular to the door (here it is Fsin).

  9. The units of torque are Nm (not joules!). By convention: • When the applied force causes the object to rotate counterclockwise (CCW) then  is positive. • When the applied force causes the object to rotate clockwise (CW) then  is negative.

  10. Torque method 2: r is called the lever arm and F is the magnitude of the applied force. Lever arm is the perpendicular distance to the line of action of the force.

  11. F r  Hinge end  Line of action of the force Lever arm The torque is: Same as before Top view of door

  12. Example (text problem 8.12): The pull cord of a lawnmower engine is wound around a drum of radius 6.00 cm, while the cord is pulled with a force of 75.0 N to start the engine. What magnitude torque does the cord apply to the drum? F=75 N R=6.00 cm

  13. F2=30 N 30 F3=20 N 10 X 45 F1=25 N Example: Calculate the torque due to the three forces shown about the left end of the bar (the red X). The length of the bar is 4m and F2 acts in the middle of the bar.

  14. Lever arm for F2 F2=30 N 30 F3=20 N 10 X 45 Lever arm for F3 F1=25 N Example continued: The lever arms are:

  15. Example continued: The torques are: The net torque is + 65.8 Nm and is the sum of the above results.

  16. §8.3 Work done by a Torque The work done by a torque  is where  is the angle (in radians) the object turns through.

  17. Example (text problem 8.25): A flywheel of mass 182 kg has a radius of 0.62 m (assume the flywheel is a hoop). (a) What is the torque required to bring the flywheel from rest to a speed of 120 rpm in an interval of 30 sec?

  18. Example continued: (b) How much work is done in this 30 sec period?

  19. §8.4 Equilibrium The conditions for equilibrium are:

  20. Example (text problem 8.36): A sign is supported by a uniform horizontal boom of length 3.00 m and weight 80.0 N. A cable, inclined at a 35 angle with the boom, is attached at a distance of 2.38 m from the hinge at the wall. The weight of the sign is 120.0 N. What is the tension in the cable and what are the horizontal and vertical forces exerted on the boom by the hinge?

  21. y Fy T  X Fx x wbar Fsb Example continued: FBD for the bar: Apply the conditions for equilibrium to the bar:

  22. Example continued: Equation (3) can be solved for T: Equation (1) can be solved for Fx: Equation (2) can be solved for Fy:

  23. §8.5 Equilibrium in the Human Body Example (text problem 8.43): Find the force exerted by the biceps muscle in holding a one liter milk carton with the forearm parallel to the floor. Assume that the hand is 35.0 cm from the elbow and that the upper arm is 30.0 cm long. The elbow is bent at a right angle and one tendon of the biceps is attached at a position 5.00 cm from the elbow and the other is attached 30.0 cm from the elbow. The weight of the forearm and empty hand is 18.0 N and the center of gravity is at a distance of 16.5 cm from the elbow.

  24. Fb “hinge” (elbow joint) Fca w Example continued:

  25. §8.6 Rotational Form of Newton’s 2nd Law Compare to

  26. Example (text problem 8.57): A bicycle wheel (a hoop) of radius 0.3 m and mass 2 kg is rotating at 4.00 rev/sec. After 50 sec the wheel comes to a stop because of friction. What is the magnitude of the average torque due to frictional forces?

  27. §8.7 Rolling Objects An object that is rolling combines translational motion (its center of mass moves) and rotational motion (points in the body rotate around the center of mass). For a rolling object: If the object rolls without slipping then vcm = R.

  28. h  Example: Two objects (a solid disk and a solid sphere) are rolling down a ramp. Both objects start from rest and from the same height. Which object reaches the bottom of the ramp first? The object with the largest linear velocity (v) at the bottom of the ramp will win the race.

  29. Example continued: Apply conservation of mechanical energy: Solving for v:

  30. Example continued: The moments of inertia are: For the disk: Since Vsphere> Vdisk the sphere wins the race. For the sphere: Compare these to a box sliding down the ramp.

  31. y N w How do objects in the previous example roll? FBD: x Both the normal force and the weight act through the center of mass so =0. This means that the object cannot rotate when only these two forces are applied.

  32. y N Fs w  x Add friction: FBD: Also need acm = R and The above system of equations can be solved for v at the bottom of the ramp. The result is the same as when using energy methods. (See text example 8.13.) It is static friction that makes an object roll.

  33. §8.8 Angular Momentum Units of p are kg m/s Units of L are kg m2/s When no net external forces act, the momentum of a system remains constant (pi = pf) When no net external torques act, the angular momentum of a system remains constant (Li = Lf).

  34. Example (text problem 8.70): A turntable of mass 5.00 kg has a radius of 0.100 m and spins with a frequency of 0.500 rev/sec. What is the angular momentum? Assume a uniform disk.

  35. Example (text problem 8.79): A skater is initially spinning at a rate of 10.0 rad/sec with I=2.50 kg m2 when her arms are extended. What is her angular velocity after she pulls her arms in and reduces I to 1.60 kg m2? He/she is on ice, so we can ignore external torques.

  36. §8.9 The Vector Nature of Angular Momentum Angular momentum is a vector. Its direction is defined with a right-hand rule.

  37. Curl the fingers of your right hand so that they curl in the direction a point on the object moves, and your thumb will point in the direction of the angular momentum.

  38. Consider a person holding a spinning wheel. When viewed from the front, the wheel spins CCW. Holding the wheel horizontal, they step on to a platform that is free to rotate about a vertical axis.

  39. Initially, nothing happens. They then move the wheel so that it is over their head. As a result, the platform turns CW (when viewed from above). This is a result of conserving angular momentum.

  40. Initially there is no angular momentum about the vertical axis. When the wheel is moved so that it has angular momentum about this axis, the platform must spin in the opposite direction so that the net angular momentum stays zero. Is angular momentum conserved about the direction of the wheel’s initial, horizontal axis?

  41. It is not. The floor exerts a torque on the system (platform + person), thus angular momentum is not conserved here.
