Rotational Kinematics
2
Angular Position
3
Degrees and revolutions: Angular Position θ > 0 θ < 0
4
Arc Length Arc length s, from angle measured in radians: s = r θ - Arc length for a full rotation (360 o ) of a radius=1m circle? - What is the relationship between the circumference of a circle and its diameter? C / D = π C = 2 π r s = 2 π (1 m) = 2 π meters 1 complete revolution = 2 π radians 1 rad = 360 o / (2π) = 57.3 o
5
Why use radians? Doesn’t involve arbitrary choice of 360 degrees. There is another unit, the gon or gradian that is used in surveying: Radians useful for small angles: 5
6
Angular Velocity
7
Instantaneous Angular Velocity Period = How long it takes to go 1 full revolution Period T: SI unit: second, s
8
Linear and Angular Velocity
9
Greater translation for same rotation

Bonnie and Klyde II Bonnie Klyde a) Klyde b) Bonnie c) both the same d) linear velocity is zero for both of them Bonnie sits on the outer rim of a merry-go-round, and Klyde sits midway between the center and the rim. The merry-go-round makes one revolution every 2 seconds. Who has the larger linear (tangential) velocity?
11
a) Klyde b) Bonnie c) both the same d) linear velocity is zero for both of them linear speeds v v = r Bonnie is located farther out Their linear speeds v will be different because v = r and Bonnie is located farther out (larger radius r) than Klyde.Bonnie Klyde Bonnie and Klyde II Bonnie sits on the outer rim of a merry-go- round, and Klyde sits midway between the center and the rim. The merry-go-round makes one revolution every 2 seconds. Who has the larger linear (tangential) velocity?
12
Angular Acceleration
13
Instantaneous Angular Acceleration
14
Rotational Kinematics, Constant Acceleration If the acceleration is constant: If the angular acceleration is constant: v = v 0 + at
15
Analogies between linear and rotational kinematics:
16
An object at rest begins to rotate with a constant angular acceleration. If this object rotates through an angle in the time t, through what angle did it rotate in the time t? Angular Displacement I ½ a) b) c) d) 2 e) 4 ½ ¼ ¾
17
An object at rest begins to rotate with a constant angular acceleration. If this object rotates through an angle in the time t, through what angle did it rotate in the time t ? a) b) c) d) 2 e) 4 half the time one-quarter the angle The angular displacement is = t 2 (starting from rest), and there is a quadratic dependence on time. Therefore, in half the time, the object has rotated through one-quarter the angle. Angular Displacement I ½ ¼ ½ ¾
18
Which child experiences a greater acceleration? (assume constant angular speed)
19
Larger r: - larger v for same ω - larger a c for same ω a c is required for circular motion. An object may have a t as well, which implies angular acceleration
20
Angular acceleration and total linear acceleration
21
Angular and linear acceleration
22
Rolling Motion If a round object rolls without slipping, there is a fixed relationship between the translational and rotational speeds:
23
Rolling Motion We may also consider rolling motion to be a combination of pure rotational and pure translational motion: + =
25
Jeff of the Jungle swings on a vine that is 7.20 m long. At the bottom of the swing, just before hitting the tree, Jeff’s linear speed is 8.50 m/s. (a) Find Jeff’s angular speed at this time. (b) What centripetal acceleration does Jeff experience at the bottom of his swing? (c) What exerts the force that is responsible for Jeff’s centripetal acceleration? a) b) c) This is the force that is responsible for keeping Jeff in circular motion: the vine.
