Rotation and angular momentum
Rotation of a rigid body
• We consider rotational motion of a rigid body about
a fixed axis
• Rigid body rotates with all its parts locked together
and without any change in its shape
• Fixed axis: it does not move during the rotation
• This axis is called axis of rotation
• Reference line is introduced
Angular position
• Reference line is fixed in the body, is perpendicular
to the rotation axis, intersects the rotation axis, and
rotates with the body
• Angular position – the angle (in radians or degrees)
of the reference line relative to a fixed direction (zero
angular position)
Angular displacement
• Angular displacement – the change in angular
position.
• Angular displacement is considered positive in the
CCW direction and holds for the rigid body as a
whole and every part within that body

Rotation with constant angular
acceleration
• Similarly to the case of 1D motion with a constant
acceleration we can derive a set of formulas:

Problem 6
A rotating wheel requires 3.00 s to rotate through 37.0 revolutions. Its angular
speed at the end of the 3.00-s interval is 98.0 rad/s. What is the constant
angular acceleration of the wheel?

• This integral can be calculated for different shapes
and density distributions
• For a constant density and the rotation axis going
through the center of mass the rotational inertia for 9
common body shapes is given in Table 10-2 (next

• The rotational inertia of a rigid body depends on the
position and orientation of the axis of rotation relative
to the body

Problem 22
Rigid rods of negligible mass lying along the y axis connect three particles.
The system rotates about the x axis with an angular speed of 2.00 rad/s. Find
(a) the moment of inertia about the x axis and the total rotational kinetic energy
and (b) the tangential speed of each particle and the total kinetic energy. (c)
Compare the answers for kinetic energy in parts (a) and (b).
Torque
• We apply a force at point P to a rigid body that is
free to rotate about an axis passing through O
• Only the tangential component Ft = F sin φ of the
force will be able to cause rotation
Torque
• The ability to rotate will also depend on how far from
the rotation axis the force is applied
• Torque (turning action of a force):
  ( Ft )(r )  ( F sin  )(r )
• SI unit: N*m (don’t confuse with J)
Torque
• Torque:
  ( Ft )(r )  ( F sin  )(r )  ( F )(r sin  )
• Moment arm: r┴=
r sinφ
• Torque can be redefined as:
force times moment arm
τ = F r┴
Newton’s Second Law for rotation

force

Problem 39
An electric motor turns a flywheel through a drive belt that joins a pulley on the
motor and a pulley that is rigidly attached to the flywheel. The flywheel is a
solid disk with a mass of 80.0 kg and a diameter of 1.25 m. It turns on a
frictionless axle. Its pulley has much smaller mass and a radius of 0.230 m. The
tension in the upper (taut) segment of the belt is 135 N, and the flywheel has a
clockwise angular acceleration of 1.67 rad/s2. Find the tension in the lower
(slack) segment of the belt.

Smooth rolling
• Smooth rolling – object is rolling without slipping or
bouncing on the surface
• Center of mass is moving at speed vCM
• Point P (point of momentary contact between two
surfaces) is moving at speed vCM
s = θR
ds/dt = d(θR)/dt = R dθ/dt
vCM = ds/dt = ωR
Rolling: translation and rotation
combined
• Rotation – all points on the wheel move with the
same angular speed ω
• Translation – all point on the wheel move with the
same linear speed vCM

Problem 53
A cylinder of mass 10.0 kg rolls without slipping on a horizontal surface. At a
certain instant its center of mass has a speed of 10.0 m/s. Determine (a) the
translational kinetic energy of its center of mass, (b) the rotational kinetic
energy about its center of mass, and (c) its total energy.
Rolling: pure rotation
• Rolling can be viewed as a pure rotation around the
axis P moving with the linear speed vcom
• The speed of the top of the rolling wheel will be
vtop = (ω)(2R)
= 2(ωR) = 2vCM
Friction and rolling
• Smooth rolling is an idealized mathematical
description of a complicated process
• In a uniform smooth rolling, P is at rest, so there’s
no tendency to slide and hence no friction force
• In case of an accelerated smooth rolling
aCM = α R
fs opposes tendency to slide

Vector product of two vectors
• The result of the vector (cross) multiplication of two
vectors is a vector
  
a b  c
• The magnitude of this vector is
c  absin 

• Angle
 φ is the smaller of the two angles between b
and a
Vector product of two vectors

• Vector c is perpendicular
to the plane that contains

vectors a and b and its direction is determined by
the right-hand rule
• Because of the right-hand rule, the order of
multiplication is important (commutative law does not
apply)
