Angular Kinematics Ch 4 Notes

Angular Variables Angular Variables 1 Θ rad = _____ ͦ of twist 1 ω = ____ ͦ of twist in a second’s time = Θ rad / 1 s 1 α = change in angular speed equal to ____ of twist per second = Δω / 1 s The radian itself has_______ units S θ rad

Angular Kinematics Definitions Angular Velocity: “amount of twist per time” ώ = ΔΘ / Δt units: _____ Angular Acceleration: “amount of change in twist per time” Angular Acceleration: “amount of change in twist per time” α = Δώ / Δt Units: ______

Linking Linear with Angular… v t = Δx/Δt = C/T = 2πr/T 1 rev = 2π radians = 6.28 radians Centripetal or radial acceleration a = a r = v 2 /r in linear units a c = a r = v 2 /r in linear units a c = a r = rώ 2 in angular units CCW = _____, CW = _____

Clockwise (CW) vs. Counterclockwise (CCW) CCW is +, CW is – throughout course

1. Finding radial acceleration- linear units What is the radial acceleration of an object that spins with a linear speed of 4.00 m/s at a 0.80 m distance from the axis of rotation?

2. Finding radial acceleration- angular units What is the radial acceleration of a motorcycle proceeding in a circular cage of diameter 14.0 m if it is moving at an angular velocity of 2.0 rad/s?

A closer look at acceleration… For objects that are moving, the acceleration can be broken down into components parallel to and perpendicular to motion. // to motion: tangential acceleration –Leads to more/less rpm, units m/s 2 Perp. to motion: radial acceleration or centripetal acceleration –Gives inward acceleration needed to make circular motion, units m/s 2

Galileo’s Formulas Work for Rotation!!!! Angular displacement: Θ(# radians spun) rad Angular velocity: ώ (radians spun per second) rad/s Angular acceleration: α (Δ in rps per sec) rad/s 2 V f = v i + aΔt________________________ V f 2 = V i 2 + 2ax ________________________ x = v i t + ½at 2 __________________

3. What is angular acceleration? An piece of tape at the edge of the disk of radius 0.19 m slows from a speed of 2.00 m/s to a speed of 1.00 m/s in a 6.00 second time frame. What is the angular acceleration of the tape? What is the angular acceleration of the inside edge of the disk (r = 0.03 m)?

4. What is the final angular velocity? An object being swung around with a radius of 0.50 m is subject to an angular acceleration of 0.25 rad/s 2 for a 3.00 second time frame. If it started with a speed of 8.00 m/s, what is its angular velocity after the three seconds have elapsed? What number of rotations will have occurred in this 3.0 sec time span?

5. What is the angular acceleration? A disk is spun for a total of 62 rotations. It begins at an angular velocity of 1.8 rad/s and due to friction this value drops to 1.2 rad/s by the 62 nd rotation. What is this disk’s angular acceleration?

Moment of Inertia “Inertia of Spin” Measure of the unwillingness of a material to want to rotate Increases with greater overall mass, no matter what the shape of the material Shape affects moment If all mass on outside of orbit, I = mr 2 Others p. 298

What has more kinetic energy, a knuckleball pitched at 70 mph, or a changeup pitched at 70 mph? Close but not identical!!!!!!

Rotational Kinetic Energy “Energy of Spin” as opposed to “Energy of Motion” KE rot = ½ I ω 2 Objects that are rolling tend to have both forms of KE!

Example: Total KE What is the total KE of a basketball (0.60 kg, diameter 30.0 cm) that is rolling at a speed of 2.00 m/s on the ground?

Moment of Inertia Moment of inertia generally higher the more mass is distributed further from the axis of rotation

Moment of inertia changes for the same material according to what spin axis you choose for it.

Shapes & Moments of Inertia

The disk cylinder has a lower moment due fact that mass closer to axis of rotation is easier to rotate Τ = F l T = I α
