  1. Chapters 7 & 8 The Law of Gravity and Rotational Motion

  2. Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation • Every particle in the Universe attracts every other particle with a force that is directly proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

  3. Universal Gravitation, 2 • G is the constant of universal gravitational • G = 6.673 x 10-11 N m² /kg² • This is an example of an inverse square law

  4. Universal Gravitation, 3 • The force that mass 1 exerts on mass 2 is equal and opposite to the force mass 2 exerts on mass 1 • The forces form a Newton’s third law action-reaction

  5. Universal Gravitation, 4 • The gravitational force exerted by a uniform sphere on a particle outside the sphere is the same as the force exerted if the entire mass of the sphere were concentrated on its center • This is called Gauss’ Law

  6. Gravitation Constant • Determined experimentally • Henry Cavendish • 1798 • The light beam and mirror serve to amplify the motion

  7. Applications of Universal Gravitation • Acceleration due to gravity • g will vary with altitude

  8. Kepler’s Laws • All planets move in elliptical orbits with the Sun at one of the focal points. • A line drawn from the Sun to any planet sweeps out equal areas in equal time intervals. • The square of the orbital period of any planet is proportional to cube of the average distance from the Sun to the planet.

  9. Kepler’s Laws, cont. • Based on observations made by Brahe • Newton later demonstrated that these laws were consequences of the gravitational force between any two objects together with Newton’s laws of motion

  10. Kepler’s First Law • All planets move in elliptical orbits with the Sun at one focus. • Any object bound to another by an inverse square law will move in an elliptical path • Second focus is empty

  11. Kepler’s Second Law • A line drawn from the Sun to any planet will sweep out equal areas in equal times • Area from A to B and C to D are the same

  12. Kepler’s Third Law • The square of the orbital period of any planet is proportional to cube of the average distance from the Sun to the planet. • For orbit around the Sun, K = KS = 2.97x10-19 s2/m3 • K is independent of the mass of the planet

  13. Kepler’s Third Law

  14. Period of a Satellite in a Circular Orbit

  15. Speed of a Satellite in Circular Orbit

  16. The Radian • The radian is a unit of angular measure • The radian can be defined as the arc length s along a circle divided by the radius r

  17. More About Radians • Comparing degrees and radians • Converting from degrees to radians

  18. Angular Displacement • Axis of rotation is the center of the disk • Need a fixed reference line • During time t, the reference line moves through angle θ

  19. Rigid Body • Every point on the object undergoes circular motion about the point O • All parts of the object of the body rotate through the same angle during the same time • The object is considered to be a rigid body • This means that each part of the body is fixed in position relative to all other parts of the body

  20. Angular Displacement, cont. • The angular displacement is defined as the angle the object rotates through during some time interval • The unit of angular displacement is the radian • Each point on the object undergoes the same angular displacement

  21. Average Angular Speed • The average angular speed, ω, of a rotating rigid object is the ratio of the angular displacement to the time interval

  22. Angular Speed, cont. • The instantaneous angular speed is defined as the limit of the average speed as the time interval approaches zero • Units of angular speed are radians/sec • rad/s • Speed will be positive if θ is increasing (counterclockwise) • Speed will be negative if θ is decreasing (clockwise)

  23. Average Angular Acceleration • The average angular acceleration of an object is defined as the ratio of the change in the angular speed to the time it takes for the object to undergo the change:

  24. Angular Acceleration, cont • Units of angular acceleration are rad/s² • Positive angular accelerations are in the counterclockwise direction and negative accelerations are in the clockwise direction • When a rigid object rotates about a fixed axis, every portion of the object has the same angular speed and the same angular acceleration

  25. Angular Acceleration, final • The sign of the acceleration does not have to be the same as the sign of the angular speed • The instantaneous angular acceleration is defined as the limit of the average acceleration as the time interval approaches zero

  26. Analogies Between Linear and Rotational Motion

  27. Relationship Between Linear and Angular Measures

  28. Key Question: Why does a roller coaster stay on a track upside down on a loop? Centripetal Force

  29. Centripetal Force • We usually think of acceleration as a change in speed. • Because velocity includes both speed and direction, acceleration can also be a change in the direction of motion.

  30. Centripetal Force • Any force that causes an object to move in a circle is called a centripetal force. • A centripetal force is always perpendicular to an object’s motion, toward the center of the circle.

  31. Centripetal Force Mass (kg) Linear speed (m/sec) Fc = mv2 r Centripetal force (N) Radius of path (m)

  32. Calculate centripetal force • A 50-kilogram passenger on an amusement park ride stands with his back against the wall of a cylindrical room with radius of 3 m. • What is the centripetal force of the wall pressing into his back when the room spins and he is moving at 6 m/sec?

  33. Centripetal Acceleration • Acceleration is the rate at which an object’s velocity changes as the result of a force. • Centripetal acceleration is the acceleration of an object moving in a circle due to the centripetal force.

  34. Centripetal Acceleration Speed (m/sec) ac = v2 r Centripetal acceleration (m/sec2) Radius of path (m)

  35. Calculate centripetal acceleration • A motorcycle drives around a bend with a 50-meter radius at 10 m/sec. • Find the motor cycle’s centripetal acceleration and compare it with g, the acceleration of gravity.

  36. Centrifugal Force • Although the centripetal force pushes you toward the center of the circular path... • ...it seems as if there also is a force pushing you to the outside. This apparent outward force is called centrifugal force. • We call an object’s tendency to resist a change in its motion its inertia. • An object moving in a circle is constantly changing its direction of motion.

  37. Centrifugal Force • This is easy to observe by twirling a small object at the end of a string. • When the string is released, the object flies off in a straight line tangent to the circle. • Centrifugal force is not a true forceexerted on your body. • It is simply your tendency to move in a straight line due to inertia.

  38. Force vs. Torque • Forces cause accelerations • Torques cause angular accelerations • Force and torque are related

  39. Torque • The door is free to rotate about an axis through O • There are three factors that determine the effectiveness of the force in opening the door: • The magnitude of the force • The position of the application of the force • The angle at which the force is applied

  40. Torque, cont • Torque, t, is the tendency of a force to rotate an object about some axis • t = r F • t is the torque • F is the force • symbol is the Greek tau • r is the length of the position vector • SI unit is N.m

  41. Direction of Torque • Torque is a vector quantity • The direction is perpendicular to the plane determined by the position vector and the force • If the turning tendency of the force is counterclockwise, the torque will be positive • If the turning tendency is clockwise, the torque will be negative

  42. Multiple Torques • When two or more torques are acting on an object, the torques are added • As vectors • If the net torque is zero, the object’s rate of rotation doesn’t change

  43. General Definition of Torque • The applied force is not always perpendicular to the position vector • The component of the force perpendicular to the object will cause it to rotate

  44. General Definition of Torque, cont • When the force is parallel to the position vector, no rotation occurs • When the force is at some angle, the perpendicular component causes the rotation

  45. General Definition of Torque, final • Taking the angle into account leads to a more general definition of torque: • t = r F sin q • F is the force • r is the position vector • q is the angle between the force and the position vector

  46. Lever Arm • The lever arm, d, is the perpendicular distance from the axis of rotation to a line drawn along the direction of the force • d = r sin q
