  1. Chapter 7 Rotational Motion and The Law of Gravity

  2. 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

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

  4. 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

  5. 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

  6. 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

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

  8. 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)

  9. Example 1 Find the angular speed of Earth about the Sun in radians per second and degrees per day.

  10. 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:

  11. 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

  12. 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

  13. Example 2 A potter’s wheel moves from rest to an angular speed of 0.20 rev/s in 30 s. Find its angular acceleration in radians per second per second.

  14. Analogies Between Linear and Rotational Motion

  15. Displacements Speeds Accelerations Every point on the rotating object has the same angular motion Every point on the rotating object does not have the same linear motion Relationship Between Angular and Linear Quantities

  16. Example 3 A centrifuge in a medical laboratory rotates at an angular speed of 3 600 rev/min. When switched off, it rotates through 50.0 revolutions before coming to rest. Find the constant angular acceleration of the centrifuge.

  17. Example 4 A machine part rotates at an angular speed of 0.60 rad/s; its speed is then increased to 2.2 rad/s at an angular acceleration of 0.70 rad/s2. Find the angle through which the part rotates before reaching this final speed.

  18. Example 5 A tire placed on a balancing machine in a service station starts from rest and turns through 4.7 revolutions in 1.2 s before reaching its final angular speed. Calculate its angular acceleration.

  19. Example 6 A rotating wheel requires 3.00 s to rotate 37.0 revolutions. Its angular velocity at the end of the 3.00-s interval is 98.0 rad/s. What is the constant angular acceleration of the wheel?

  20. Example 7 A tire 2.00 ft in diameter is placed on a balancing machine, where it is spun so that its tread is moving at a constant speed of 60.0 mi/h. A small stone is stuck in the tread of the tire. What is the acceleration of the stone as the tire is being balanced?

  21. 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

  22. Centripetal Acceleration, cont. • Centripetal refers to “center-seeking” • The direction of the velocity changes • The acceleration is directed toward the center of the circle of motion

  23. Centripetal Acceleration, final • The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration is given by • This direction is toward the center of the circle

  24. Centripetal Acceleration and Angular Velocity • The angular velocity and the linear velocity are related (v = ωr) • The centripetal acceleration can also be related to the angular velocity

  25. Total Acceleration • The tangential component of the acceleration is due to changing speed • The centripetal component of the acceleration is due to changing direction • Total acceleration can be found from these components

  26. Vector Nature of Angular Quantities • Angular displacement, velocity and acceleration are all vector quantities • Direction can be more completely defined by using the right hand rule • Grasp the axis of rotation with your right hand • Wrap your fingers in the direction of rotation • Your thumb points in the direction of ω

  27. Velocity Directions, Example • In a, the disk rotates clockwise, the velocity is into the page • In b, the disk rotates counterclockwise, the velocity is out of the page

  28. Acceleration Directions • If the angular acceleration and the angular velocity are in the same direction, the angular speed will increase with time • If the angular acceleration and the angular velocity are in opposite directions, the angular speed will decrease with time

  29. Forces Causing Centripetal Acceleration • Newton’s Second Law says that the centripetal acceleration is accompanied by a force • FC = maC • FC stands for any force that keeps an object following a circular path • Tension in a string • Gravity • Force of friction

  30. Problem Solving Strategy • Draw a free body diagram, showing and labeling all the forces acting on the object(s) • Choose a coordinate system that has one axis perpendicular to the circular path and the other axis tangent to the circular path • The normal to the plane of motion is also often needed

  31. Problem Solving Strategy, cont. • Find the net force toward the center of the circular path (this is the force that causes the centripetal acceleration, FC) • Use Newton’s second law • The directions will be radial, normal, and tangential • The acceleration in the radial direction will be the centripetal acceleration • Solve for the unknown(s)

  32. Applications of Forces Causing Centripetal Acceleration • Many specific situations will use forces that cause centripetal acceleration • Level curves • Banked curves • Horizontal circles • Vertical circles

  33. Level Curves • Friction is the force that produces the centripetal acceleration • Can find the frictional force, µ, or v

  34. Banked Curves • A component of the normal force adds to the frictional force to allow higher speeds

  35. Vertical Circle • Look at the forces at the top of the circle • The minimum speed at the top of the circle can be found

  36. Forces in Accelerating Reference Frames • Distinguish real forces from fictitious forces • “Centrifugal” force is a fictitious force • Real forces always represent interactions between objects

  37. Example 8 The cornering performance of an automobile is evaluated on a skid pad, where the maximum speed that a car can maintain around a circular path on a dry, flat surface is measured. Then the centripetal acceleration, also called the lateral acceleration, is calculated as a multiple of the free-fall acceleration g. The main factors affecting the performance of the car are its tire characteristics and suspension system. A Dodge Viper GTS can negotiate a skid pad of radius 61.0 m at 86.5 km/h. Calculate its maximum lateral acceleration.

  38. Example 9 An air puck of mass 0.25 kg is tied to a string and allowed to revolve in a circle of radius 1.0 m on a frictionless horizontal table. The other end of the string passes through a hole in the center of the table, and a mass of 1.0 kg is tied to it (Fig. P7.25). The suspended mass remains in equilibrium while the puck on the tabletop revolves. (a) What is the tension in the string? (b) What is the horizontal force acting on the puck? (c) What is the speed of the puck?

  39. 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.

  40. 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

  41. 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

  42. 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

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

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

  45. Gravitational Potential Energy • PE = mgy is valid only near the earth’s surface • For objects high above the earth’s surface, an alternate expression is needed • Zero reference level is infinitely far from the earth

  46. Escape Speed • The escape speed is the speed needed for an object to soar off into space and not return • For the earth, vesc is about 11.2 km/s • Note, v is independent of the mass of the object

  47. Various Escape Speeds • The escape speeds for various members of the solar system • Escape speed is one factor that determines a planet’s atmosphere

  48. Example 10 Objects with masses of 200 kg and 500 kg are separated by 0.400 m. (a) Find the net gravitational force exerted by these objects on a 50.0-kg object placed midway between them. (b) At what position (other than infinitely remote ones) can the 50.0-kg object be placed so as to experience a net force of zero?

  49. Example 11 Two objects attract each other with a gravitational force of magnitude 1.00 × 10–8 N when separated by 20.0 cm. If the total mass of the objects is 5.00 kg, what is the mass of each?

  50. 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.
