1 8.4. Newton’s Second Law for Rotational Motion
A model airplane on a guideline has a mass m and is flying on a circle of radius r (top view). A net tangential force FT acts on the plane. Newton’s 2nd law: F = ma What is the corresponding law?

2 NEWTON’S SECOND LAW FOR A RIGID BODY ROTATING ABOUT A FIXED AXIS

3 Moment of Inertia of point masses

4 Moment of Inertia, I for Extended regular- shaped objects

5 8.4 Rotational Work and Energy
Work and energy are among the most fundamental and useful concepts in physics. The force F does work in rotating the wheel through the angle q.

6 ROTATIONAL WORK The rotational work WR done by a constant torque t   in turning an object through an angle q   is SI Unit of Rotational Work: joule (J) What does Wr correspond to???

7 ROTATIONAL WORK The rotational work WR done by a constant torque t   in turning an object through an angle q   is Linear: W = F d

8 ROTATIONAL KINETIC ENERGY
What does this correspond to???

9 ROTATIONAL KINETIC ENERGY
KE = ½ m v 2

10 Demo on Rolling Cylinders

11 8.5 Angular Momentum What does this correspond to???
The angular momentum L of a body rotating about a fixed axis is the product of the body's moment of inertia I and its angular velocity w   with respect to that axis: SI Unit of Angular Momentum: kg · m2/s. What does this correspond to???

12 8.5 Angular Momentum Corresponds to p= m v
Angular Momentum is the resistance to the change in rotation. The angular momentum L of a body rotating about a fixed axis is the product of the body's moment of inertia I and its angular velocity w   with respect to that axis: SI Unit of Angular Momentum: kg · m2/s. Corresponds to p= m v

13 CONSERVATION OF ANGULAR MOMENTUM
The total angular momentum of a system remains constant (is conserved) if the net external torque acting on the system is zero. L = always constant when no net torque is present. Note: I depends on Shape. When I drops, ω increases.

14 Demonstration on Conservation of angular momentum Chair Experiment

15 Problem A woman stands at the center of a platform. The woman and the platform rotate with an angular speed of 5.00 rad/s. Friction is negligible. Her arms are outstretched, and she is holding a dumbbell in each hand. In this position the total moment of inertia of the rotating system (platform, woman, and dumbbells) is 5.40 kg·m2. By pulling in her arms, she reduces the moment of inertia to 3.80 kg·m2. Find her new angular speed.
