Study Notes
Rotational Kinematics
- Rotational kinematics is the study of motion involving rotation.
- Circular motion requires a force to sustain motion.
- Uniform circular motion involves acceleration, and the force causing it, directed towards the centre of the circle.
- Applying knowledge of circular motion can model applications.
- Heavenly bodies, planets and stars once believed to move in circles around Earth.
- Newton's First Law of motion states that a body remains in a state of rest or moves with uniform motion unless an external force is applied.
- Bodies describing a circle are not at rest and their direction of motion continuously changes.
- Acceleration is a result of a change in velocity over time.
Acceleration
-
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.
-
Three ways an object can experience acceleration:
- Speeding up
- Slowing down
- Changing direction
-
Speed can be calculated as distance divided by time.
Angular Displacement
- Angular displacement is the change in the angle of a body with respect to its initial position.
- Angular displacement is measured in radians.
- One full rotation is 2π radians.
Angular Velocity
-
The rate of change of angular displacement is called angular velocity (ω)
-
Angular velocity can be calculated using the formula: ω = Δθ / Δt (or dθ/dt = ω )
Angular Acceleration
-
Rate of change of angular velocity is called angular acceleration (α)
-
Is measured in terms of rad s⁻² and its dimensional formula is T⁻².
-
Its formula is α = Δω / Δt (or dω / dt = α)
Activities
- Include problems and calculations demonstrating the concepts in rotational kinematics.
Centripetal Acceleration
- The acceleration of an object moving along a circular path.
- Its formula is a = v²/r
Linear Motion vs. Circular Motion Equations
- Equations for translational and rotational motion are presented
- Formulas for variables in rotational motion (angular displacement(θ), angular velocity (ω), and angular acceleration (α)) are shown
Examples
- Provide examples of problems and calculations that utilize rotational kinematics concepts.
Activities
- Include problems and calculations involving rotational kinematics concepts.
Centripetal Force
- The force required to keep an object moving in a circular path.
- Formula is Fc= mv^2/r.
Activities
- Include problems and calculations involving centripetal force concepts.
Friction
- Defined as a resistance force opposing motion when a body slides or tends to slide on a surface.
- Types of friction:
- Static friction: Between a stationary body and a surface.
- Dynamic friction: Experienced by a body moving over a surface.
- Sliding friction: Object sliding over another object.
- Rolling friction: Object rolling over another object.
- Limiting friction: Maximum force that can be developed at the contact surface when a body is on the verge of moving.
- Relationship between frictional force, normal reaction, and the coefficient of friction.
Laws of Dynamic and Static Friction
- The friction force is always in a direction opposite to that of motion.
- Static friction force magnitude is equal to the external force, but constant ratio of limiting friction force to normal reaction force.
- Under moderate speed the dynamic friction force remains constant, decreasing with increasing speed.
Activities
- Include examples of problems and calculations demonstrating the concept of friction.
Torque
-
A measure of the force that can cause rotation.
-
Factors that affect torque:
- Force magnitude
- Point of application
- Angle at which the force is applied
-
It's measured in newton-meters (Nm).
-
Torque = force x perpendicular distance from axis of rotation.
Activities
- Include problems and calculations involving torque concepts.
Net Torque
- The vector sum of all the torques acting on a body.
- Total torque is zero in equilibrium condition
Activities
- Include problems and calculations involving a net torque and equilibrium of forces and moments.
Other applications...
- Applications of concepts to banking of curved roads and conical pendulums.
Rotational Kinetic Energy and Moment of Inertia
- The kinetic energy possessed by a body rotating about an axis.
- Formula for rotational kinetic energy KE= 1/2 Ιω^2
Activities
- Problems and calculations involving rotational kinetic energy (KE) and moment of inertia.
