  11. Review Torque • Torque = (Lever Arm) x (Magnitude of the force) Physics 253

  12. Rotational Dynamics: Torque and Rotational Inertia • Just as force is proportional to acceleration, torque seems to be proportional to angular acceleration: • Note that the constant of proportionality for linear motion is mass. Just on dimensional grounds the analogous constant must be different for rotational motion. • Turns out we can get there starting with the 2nd Law. Physics 253

  13. Consider a particle of mass m rotating on a circle of radius r at the end of a massless string or rod and subject to a force F. • The constant of proportionality is mR2 and represents the rotational inertia of the particle and is often called the moment of inertia. Physics 253

  15. Comments on Moment of Inertia • Serves the same role for rotational motion as mass does for linear motion • But since I=SmiRi2 is a sum over many objects it depends on mass distribution • If of equal mass, a larger cylinder will have a greater moment of inertia than a smaller one. Something intuitively true. • When mass is far from the axis, it also hard to rotate something, again something familiar. • For rotational motion the mass of a body cannot be considered as concentrated at the center of mass. • Still it can be extended to the center of mass Physics 253

  16. Two small weights of mass 5.0 and 7.0kg are mounted 4.0m apart on a massless rod. Calculate the moment of inertia I About an axis halfway between the weights About an axis 0.50 meter to left of the 5.0kg mass Calculate the force on the 7.0kg mass needed to achieve an acceleration of 1 rad/sec2 Example 1: Moments of Inertia Calculations Physics 253

  18. Characteristics of the Moment of Inertia • Different for different axes. • Masses close to the axis contribute little, but masses distant contribute much. • Calculations can be difficult because the mass distributions are not uniform. • They can be worked out taking the sum to the limit and using calculus: • Experimentally done by measuring a for a known t. Physics 253

  19. Example 2: A Heavy Pulley A 15.0 N force is applied to a cord around a 4.00kg pulley at a radius of 33.0cm. The pulley accelerates uniformly from rest to 30.0 rad/s in 3.00s. If there is a frictional torque at the axel of 1.10mN what is the pulley’s moment of inertia? Physics 253

  23. Example 3: A Pulley and Bucket • Lets take the heavy pulley problem a bit further and hang a bucket of weight 15.0N (m=1.53kg) from it. • Calculate • The angular acceleration of the pulley, a, and the linear acceleration of the bucket, a. • If the pulley and bucket start at rest calculate the angular velocity of the pulley, w, and the linear velocity of the bucket, v, at 3.00s. Physics 253

  24. Our strategy will be to • analyze the rotational motion of the pulley • analyze the linear motion of the bucket • Connect the two and solve for accelerations • Use accelerations to find the final velocity Physics 253

  26. Example 4: A Rotating Rod • A uniform rod of mass M and length L can pivot freely up or down. The rod is held horizontally and then released. • Assuming the force of gravity acts at the center of mass, at the moment of release determine • The angular acceleration of the rod • The linear acceleration at the tip of the rod.

  28. Solving Problems with Rotational Motion • Draw the free-body diagram! • Show all forces and WHERE they act. • Put gravity at the CG or CM. • Identify the axis of rotation and calculate torques about it. • CCW is positive • CW is negative. • Apply the 2nd Laws • Rotational motion: St=Ia • Translational motion: SF=ma • Solve the set of equations for any missing info. • Smell test! Physics 253

  29. To Summarize • Ok we’ve defined torque • This led to the analog of Newton’s 2nd Law for angular motion: • Where the moment of inertia serves the role of mass • Next we’ll learn how to calculate I and explore angular momentums and rotational energy. Physics 253
