in 0.5 min. Compute the angular
speed in rev/s, rad/s, deg/s.

Centripetal Acceleration


An object traveling in a circle, even
though it moves with a constant
speed, will have an acceleration
The centripetal acceleration is due to
the change in the direction of the
velocity
Centripetal Acceleration, cont.

to “center-seeking”

Dynamics of
Rotation
Force vs. Torque


Forces cause accelerations
Torques cause angular accelerations
• rotation

Force and torque are related
Torque, cont

Torque, , is the tendency of a force to
rotate an object about some axis
  Fl


 is the torque
F is the force
• symbol is the Greek tau



l is the lever arm
SI unit is N.m
Lever Arm: Perpendicular distance from
the pivot point to the line of force
Direction of Torque

Torque is a vector quantity
• We will treat only 2-d torque so no
need for vector notion.
• 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 (-)
Multiple Torques

When two or more torques are acting
on an object, the torques are added
• with the signs

If the net torque is zero, the object’s
rate of rotation doesn’t change
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
  FL sin 
l  L sin 

F is the force
L is distance
between pivot and
point of action


 is the angle
Moment of Inertia


The angular acceleration is inversely
proportional to the analogy of the
mass in a rotating system
This mass analog is called the
moment of inertia, I, of the object
• SI units are kg m2
I  mr
2
Newton’s Second Law for a
Rotating Object
  I


The angular acceleration is directly
proportional to the net torque
The angular acceleration is inversely
proportional to the moment of inertia
of the object
More About Moment of Inertia


There is a major difference between
moment of inertia and mass: the
moment of inertia depends on the
quantity of matter and its
distribution in the rigid object.
The moment of inertia also depends
upon the location of the axis of
rotation

Rotational Kinetic Energy


An object rotating about some axis
with an angular speed, ω, has
rotational kinetic energy Ekr=½Iω2
Energy concepts can be useful for
simplifying the analysis of rotational
motion
Ek  Ekt  Ekr
Total Energy of a System

Conservation of Mechanical Energy
Ek  Ekt  Ekr
EkI  E pI  EkF  E pF
• Remember, this is for conservative
forces, no dissipative forces such as
friction can be present
• Potential energies of any other
conservative forces could be added


In the case where there are
dissipative forces such as friction,
use the generalized Work-Energy
Theorem instead of Conservation of
Energy

Angular Momentum


Similarly to the relationship between
force and momentum in a linear
system, we can show the relationship
between torque and angular
momentum
Angular momentum is defined as
•L = I ω
• and
L
 
t
Angular Momentum, cont


If the net torque is zero, the angular
momentum remains constant
Conservation of Angular Momentum
states: The angular momentum of a
system is conserved when the net
external torque acting on the
systems is zero.
• That is, when
  0, Li  Lf or Iii  If f
Conservation Rules, Summary

In an isolated system, the following
quantities are conserved:
• Mechanical energy
• Linear momentum
• Angular momentum
Conservation of Angular
Momentum, Example

With hands and
feet drawn closer
to the body, the
skater’s angular
speed increases
• L is conserved, I
decreases, 
increases

radius spins at 30 rev/s on an axis
through its center.

of mass 1.5 kg and radius 13 cm.

seconds?
