2. PHY 101: Lecture 8 Rotational Kinematics 8.1 Rotational Motion and Angular Displacement

3. Rotational Motion and Angular Displacement - 1 In the simplest kind of rotation, points on a rigid object move on circular paths –In the example, we see the circular paths for points A, B, and C –The center of all such circular paths define a line, called the axis of rotation

4. Rotational Motion and Angular Displacement - 2 The angle through which a rigid object rotates about a fixed axis is called the angular displacement –The figure shows how the angular displacement is measured for a rotating disc –The axis of rotation passes through the center of the disc and is perpendicular to the disc

5. Rotational Motion and Angular Displacement - 3 On the surface of the disc draw a radial line, which is a line that intersects the axis of rotation perpendicularly As the disc turns, we observe the angle through which this line moves relative to a convenient reference line that does not rotate The radial line moves from its initial orientation at an angle  0 to a final orientation at angle 

6. Rotational Motion and Angular Displacement - 4 The line sweeps out the angle  =  –  0 Counter clockwise displacement is positive Clockwise displacement is negative

7. Rotational Motion and Angular Displacement - 5 SI Unit of Angular Displacement: radian (rad) –Figure shows how the radian is defined –The figure focuses attention on a point P on the disc –Point P starts out on the stationary reference line so that  0 = 0 rad –Angular displacement is  =  –  0 = 

8. Rotational Motion and Angular Displacement - 6 –As the disc rotates, the point traces out an arc of length s, which is measured along a circle of radius r –The angle q in radian\  rad = Arc length / Radius = s/r

9. Rotational Motion and Angular Displacement - 7 To find number of radians in a full circle take circumference 2  r and divide by radius to get 2  radians To convert from degrees to radians  radians = degrees x (2  / 360) To convert from radians to degrees  degrees = radians x (360 / 2  )

10. Rotational Motion and Angular Displacement - 7 How many degrees is an angle of 1 radian? degrees = 1 radian x (360/2  ) = 57.3 0 1 radian is a large angle

11. Example 1 How many radians is an angle of 30 0 ?  radians = 30 0 x (2  /360) = 0.52 radians

12. Example 2 The bob of a pendulum that is 0.80 m long swings through an angle of 0.2 radians Find length of arc through which it swings  An angle of 1 radian has an arc length on the circle equal to the radius of the circle  If you take the arc length and divide by the radius, you get the number of radians  radians = 0.20 = d / 0.80 radius  d = 0.16 m

19. Relationship Linear and Circular Quantities  d = r   v = r   a = r  r is the radius of the circle d is the arc length of path around circle v is the speed tangent to the circle a is the acceleration tangent to the circle

21. Linear and Circular Quantities Example 1 For a circle with a radius of 1 m, what is the arc length of an angle of 2 radians?  arc length = d = r   arc length = (1 m)(2 radians) = 2 m

22. Linear and Circular Quantities Example 2 An object travels around a circle with a radius of 1.4 m with a tangential velocity of 5 m/s What is the angular velocity?   = v/r   = (5 m/s) / 1.4 m = 3.57 radians/s

23. Circular Motion Descriptive Properties Period (T)  Time it takes to complete one cycle or one complete trip around the circle  SI Units are second/cycle Frequency (f)  Number of cycles per second  SI Units are cycles/second or Hertz (Hz)  f = 1/T Angular Frequency (  )  The number of radians per second  SI Units are radians/second   = 2  f

24. Circular Motion Descriptive Quantities – Example What is the (a) period and (b) angular frequency of an old-fashioned phonograph record that turns through 100 rotations per second?  A rotation per second is the same as cycles per second  Cycle per second is frequency, f = 100  The period T is 1/f = 1/100 = 0.01 s/cycle  The angular frequency or angular velocity is  = 2  f = 2  (100) = 628.3 rad/s
