1. Class Notes 28 November Seriously, there was no HW? Today:
Tests graded
Test rework posted, due Friday
Today:
Rotational kinematics example
Torque, Moment of Inertia
Show how time differs for flag to go through photogate on rotational platter (one flag on rim, one flag on outside of the ring attachment) (note R2/R1 = about 2)  Quiz class asking which will read higher speed?

2. Angular Kinematic Quantities
Angular position  q
Define: 1 rev = 360º = 2prad
Connection: q = l/r
Angular velocity  w
Define: w = Dq/Dt
Connection: v = wr
Angular acceleration  a
Define: a = Dw/Dt
Connection: atan = ar
Use Bike wheel with tennis ball stuck in the spokes to explain these variables. Giancoli used l for arc length. Define quantities and derive connectors. NOTE difference between tangential, radial (centripetal), and angular acceleration!

3. Kinematic Equations

4. Kinematic Equations
a = constant  = constant

5. Example
A 8.00-cm-diamter ball rolls without slipping. It travels a linear distance of 127 cm in 5.00 s. How many revolutions did it make, and what was its constant angular velocity?
Dq = 5.05 rev
w = 6.35 rad/s

6. Rolling and friction
I claim that an object that rolls without slipping experiences no energy loss due to friction.
Proof:
The bottom is (momentarily) at rest and not moving *relative to the surface it is in contact with*. So distance is zero, thus so is work due to friction.

7. Example
A wheel spinning at a rate of rpms is allowed to coast to rest and does so in 30.0 s. How far does it turn? What is its angular acceleration?
Here is an easier example: A disk rotates with constant angular acc. of 2.00 rad/s2. If it starts from rest find the number of revolutions and angular velocity after 10.0 s.  = ?,  = ? (15.9 rev, 20.0 rad/s)
Dq = ?, a = ?
Dq = 30.0 rev or 60p rad
a = -2p/15 rad/s2

8. Two coins sit on a rotation platform, coin “A” at half the radius of coin “B”. Compare their line- ar and angular speeds by selecting two answers:
vA > vB
vA < vB
vA = vB
A > B
A < B
A = B

9. Torque
Torque is a measure of how much a force, acting on an object, would cause that object to rotate about a certain axis point.
|| = rFsinq
Units: [] = N·m (but not Joules!)
Direction…
tP = r  F
Stress, about a point  Must define which axis point!
rFsin()   is the angle between the two vectors. Vector r is from point of interest out to point where the force is applied. Explain what a “cross product” is. It is a mathematical operation…

10. Direction for Torque F r r F Counter-clockwise rotation  Positive
 Negative
So note that the torque vector is perpendicular to both vectors r and F.
