9 Physics 207: Lecture 16, Pg 9 System of Particles (Distributed Mass): l Until now, we have considered the behavior of very simple systems (one or two masses). l But real objects have distributed mass ! l For example, consider a simple rotating disk and 2 equal mass m plugs at distances r and 2r. l Compare the velocities and kinetic energies at these two points. 1 2 

10 Physics 207: Lecture 16, Pg 10 System of Particles (Distributed Mass): l Twice the radius, four times the kinetic energy l The rotation axis matters too! 1 K= ½ m v 2 = ½ m (  r) 2 2 K= ½ m (2v) 2 = ½ m (  2r) 2 

11 Physics 207: Lecture 16, Pg 11 A special point for rotation System of Particles: Center of Mass (CM) l If an object is not held then it will rotate about the center of mass. l Center of mass: Where the system is balanced !  Building a mobile is an exercise in finding centers of mass. m1m1 m2m2 + m1m1 m2m2 + mobile

12 Physics 207: Lecture 16, Pg 12 System of Particles: Center of Mass l How do we describe the “position” of a system made up of many parts ? l Define the Center of Mass (average position):  For a collection of N individual point like particles whose masses and positions we know: (In this case, N = 2) y x r2r2 r1r1 m1m1 m2m2 R CM

13 Physics 207: Lecture 16, Pg 13 Sample calculation: l Consider the following mass distribution: (24,0) (0,0) (12,12) m 2m m R CM = (12,6) X CM = (m x 0 + 2m x 12 + m x 24 )/4m meters Y CM = (m x 0 + 2m x 12 + m x 0 )/4m meters X CM = 12 meters Y CM = 6 meters

16 Physics 207: Lecture 16, Pg 16 Rotation & Kinetic Energy l Consider the simple rotating system shown below. (Assume the masses are attached to the rotation axis by massless rigid rods). l The kinetic energy of this system will be the sum of the kinetic energy of each piece: K = ½  m 1 v 1  + ½  m 2 v 2  + ½  m 3 v 3  + ½  m 4 v 4  rr1rr1 rr2rr2 rr3rr3 rr4rr4 m4m4 m1m1 m2m2 m3m3 

18 Physics 207: Lecture 16, Pg 18 Calculating Moment of Inertia where r is the distance from the mass to the axis of rotation. Example: Calculate the moment of inertia of four point masses (m) on the corners of a square whose sides have length L, about a perpendicular axis through the center of the square: mm mm L

19 Physics 207: Lecture 16, Pg 19 Calculating Moment of Inertia... For a single object, I depends on the rotation axis! Example: I 1 = 4 m R 2 = 4 m (2 1/2 L / 2) 2 L I = 2mL 2 I 2 = mL 2 mm mm I 1 = 2mL 2

26 Physics 207: Lecture 16, Pg 26 Rotation & Kinetic Energy... l The kinetic energy of a rotating system looks similar to that of a point particle: Point Particle Rotating System v is “linear” velocity m is the mass.  is angular velocity I is the moment of inertia about the rotation axis.

27 Physics 207: Lecture 16, Pg 27 Moment of Inertia and Rotational Energy Notice that the moment of inertia I depends on the distribution of mass in the system.  The further the mass is from the rotation axis, the bigger the moment of inertia. l For a given object, the moment of inertia depends on where we choose the rotation axis (unlike the center of mass). In rotational dynamics, the moment of inertia I appears in the same way that mass m does in linear dynamics ! lSo where
