Lecture 8 Mass Moment of Inertia The mass moment of inertia of a system of particles or a body is a property that measures the resistance of the system or the body to angular acceleration in the same way that mass is a measure of the body's resistance to acceleration. Definition. The mass moment of inertia of a body about an axis is the integral of the products of all the elements of mass dm which compose the body by the squares of its shortest distances from this axis. The integration must be performed throughout the entire volume of the body. In the special case of being a constant, this term may be factored out of the integral, and the integration is then purely a function of geometry

Lecture 8 Mass Moment of Inertia Parallel-axis theorem If the moment of inertia of the body about an axis passing through the body's mass center is known, then the moment of inertia about any other parallel axis can be determined by using the parallel-axis theorem.

Lecture 8 Mass Moment of Inertia Radius of gyration This is a geometrical property which has units of length. When it and the body's mass М are known, the body's moment of inertia is determined from the equation. Composite bodies The mass moment of inertia of a composite body is the sum of the moments of inertia of the individual parts about the same axis. It is often convenient to treat a composite body as defined by positive volumes and negative volumes. The moment of inertia of a negative element, such as the material removed to from a hole, must be considered a negative quantity.

Lecture 8 Principle of Work and Energy for a Rigid Body Kinetic Energy of a Rigid Body in Translation We will consider the rigid body as a large number n of particles of mass m i. When a rigid body is in translation, all the points of the body have the same velocity v. The particle has a velocity v and the particle's kinetic energy is The kinetic energy of the entire body is

Lecture 8 Principle of Work and Energy for a Rigid Body Kinetic Energy of a Rigid Body in Rotation When a rigid body is in rotation, the particle has a velocity v i and the particle's kinetic energy is The kinetic energy of the entire body is If the body has an angular velocity the particle has a velocity v i

The first integral represents the total mass M of the body. The second integral is the kinetic energy of the body in rotation about the mass center G. Lecture 8 Principle of Work and Energy for a Rigid Body Kinetic Energy of a Rigid Body in Plane Motion The kinetic energy of the entire body is

We therefore write Lecture 8 Principle of Work and Energy for a Rigid Body Kinetic Energy of a Rigid Body in Plane Motion The third integral is equal to and thus to zero, since, which represents the velocity of G relative to the frame, is clearly zero.
