Study Notes
Rotational Motion Under Constant Angular Acceleration
- Rotational motion occurs when an object (rigid body) rotates around a fixed axis, and the distance between any two particles within the body remains constant.
- When an object rotates with a constant angular acceleration, its angular velocity changes at a constant rate, and the motion is called uniform rotational motion under constant angular acceleration.
Characteristics of Rotational Motion
- Angular displacement (Δθ) is the change in angular position of an object.
- Angular velocity (ω) is the rate of change of angular displacement.
- Angular acceleration (α) is the rate of change of angular velocity.
Key Equations
- Grammatic equations for rotational motion with constant angular acceleration:
- No equation provided in the text.
Notes
- The rotation of a car around a curved path, the spinning of a top, and the movement of a fan's blades are examples of rotational motion.
- The motion of a rigid body can be described by its angular displacement, angular velocity, and angular acceleration.
- Angular velocity is measured in radians per second (rad/s).
- One revolution is equal to 2π radians, and 380 revolutions per minute is equal to 40 radians per second.
- The unit of angular acceleration is radians per second squared (rad/s²).
