3. Physics 151: Lecture 22, Pg 2 Lecture 22, ACT 1 A campus bird spots a member of an opposing football team (maybe qb) in an amusement park. The football player is on a ride where he goes around at angular velocity  at distance R from the center. The bird flies in a horizontal circle above him. Will a dropping the bird releases while flying directly above the person’s head hit him? a. Yes, because it falls straight down. b. Yes, because it maintains the acceleration of the bird as it falls. c. No, because it falls straight down and will land behind the person. d. Yes, because it mainatins the angular velocity of the bird as it falls. e. No, because it maintains the tangential velocity the bird had at the instant it started falling.

Physics 151: Lecture 22, Pg 5 Example 2 l A rope is wrapped around the circumference of a solid disk (R=0.2m) of mass M=10kg and an object of mass m=10 kg is attached to the end of the rope 10m above the ground, as shown in the figure.  M m h =10 m T a)How long will it take for the object to hit the ground ? a)What will be the velocity of the object when it hits the ground ? a)What is the tension on the cord ? 1.7 s 11m/s 32 N

7. Physics 151: Lecture 22, Pg 6 Connection with CM motion l If an object of mass M is moving at velocity V CM without rotating then its kinetic energy is Recall text 9.6, systems of particles, CM l But what if the object is both moving and rotating? If an object of moment of inertia I CM is rotating in place about its center of mass at angular velocity  then its kinetic energy is animation

8. Physics 151: Lecture 22, Pg 7 Connection with CM motion... l So for a solid object which rotates about its center of mass and whose CM is moving:  V CM

9. Physics 151: Lecture 22, Pg 8 Example Problem l Last winter break, one of my students was bored and decided to make up a new game to play in January on the frozen lakes. The idea was to throw a yoyo on to the ice while holding one end of the string. At this point the yoyo is lying flat a distance D away from the bank and still has a length of string L wrapped around the circular part. The idea is to pull the string hard enough so that it gets back on the bank before the string completely unwinds and let loose the yoyo. You want to know the relationship between the amount of string still unwound and the distance to the bank. You note that the yoyo has a mass M, forms a disk of radius R, and you can pull a string with a maximum force F. See text: 11.1

10. Physics 151: Lecture 22, Pg 9 Example Problem 1. We need to solve for the minimum length of string wrapped around the yoyo when it lies on the ice a distance D from the shore. l For the center of mass, we will use Newton’s Second Law and the constant acceleration kinematics equations. l For the rotational motion, we will use the rotational version of Newton’s Second Law and the constant angular acceleration kinematics equations.

12. Physics 151: Lecture 22, Pg 11 Rolling Motion l Consider again a cylinder rolling at a constant speed. V CM P Q CM  At any instant the cylinder is rotating about point P. Its kinetic energy is given by its rotational energy about that point. K TOT = 1/2 I P  2

13. Physics 151: Lecture 22, Pg 12 Rolling Motion We can find I P using the parallel axis theorem V CM P Q CM  I P = I CM + MR 2 K TOT = 1/2 (I CM + MR 2 )  2 K TOT = 1/2 I CM  2 + 1/2 M (R 2  2 ) = 1/2 I CM  2 + 1/2 M v CM 2 !
