Study Notes
Rotational Motion for General Physics 1/ Grade 12
- This self-learning kit is designed for STEM students
- The activities are aligned with the Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELCs)
- The kit simplifies the concepts for better understanding
- It covers calculations for moment of inertia, torque, and rotational quantities
- Students learn to describe rotational quantities using vectors
- The kit emphasizes determining static equilibrium
- Rotational kinematic relations for constant angular accelerations are applied
- Skills in solving static equilibrium problems are enhanced
- Students become critical problem-solvers, effective communicators, and responsible citizens
Objectives
- Students will be able to describe rotational quantities using vectors
- Students will be able to calculate the moment of inertia about a given axis
- Students will be able to calculate the magnitude and direction of torque
- Students will be able to solve static equilibrium problems
- Students will be able to display appreciation for the application of rotational motion in daily life
Learning Competencies
- Calculate the moment of inertia for single and multiple objects
- Calculate magnitude and direction of torque using vector cross product
- Describe rotational quantities with vectors
- Determine whether a system is in static equilibrium
- Apply rotational kinematic relations for constant angular acceleration
- Calculate angular momentum for different systems
- Apply the torque-angular momentum relation
- Solve static equilibrium problems (e.g., see-saws, cable systems, ladders, scales)
Pre-Test (Concepts in a Box)
- Relationships between rotational and linear motion, as expressed in listed concepts (e.g., Kepler's laws, kinematics, linear motion, escape velocity, law of equal areas, angular quantities, planetary motion, law of ellipses) are organized in a chart
- These concepts include relationships between linear and rotational motion, describing motion in relation to an axis, Newtonian Law of Gravity, and other concepts related to rotational motion
Modified True or False
- Torques are associated with rotation
- Moment Arm is perpendicular distance from a force's line to axis of rotation
- Applying force creates movement
- Moment of arm is also leverage
- Measuring a force to rotate an object around an axis is called torque
- Positive torque occurs with counter-clockwise and negative with clockwise rotation
- Measuring rotation caused by a force
- The pivot point or fulcrum is the rotation point.
Inertia
- Inertia is an object's tendency to resist change in its state of motion
- Inertia applies to objects in rotational motion as well (resisting change in rotation)
- Moment of Inertia (rotational inertia) measure of the resistance a rotating object has to changing its state of rotation
- The SI unit for moment of inertia is kg·m²
- Objects with mass further from the axis of rotation have greater moment of inertia
Moment of Inertia (Rotational inertia)
- Objects resist any changes in motion
- Moment of Inertia depends on mass distribution; mass far from axis has higher inertia
- Examples provided: dumbbells
Radius of Gyration (k)
- Distance from axis where mass is concentrated to keep moment of inertia unchanged
- Analogous to center of mass
Moment of Inertia of Uniform and Regular Shaped Bodies
- Formulas provided for different shapes (solid cylinder, solid sphere, thin ring, etc.)
- These are used to determine moment of inertia
Examples
- Calculating moment of inertia for a solid cylinder
- Calculating moment of inertia and radius of gyration for a baton
Torque
- Torque is force's effectiveness in rotating a body
- Measured by multiplying the applied force by the perpendicular distance from the axis of rotation
- Units are meter-newton (m·N)
Torque Orientation
- Force direction affects rotation
- Maximum torque occurs with perpendicular alignment of force and axis of rotation
Angular Velocities
- Time rate of angular displacement changes
- Expressed in deg/s, rad/s, or rev/s
Angular Acceleration
- The time rate of change in angular velocity
- Measured in rad/s² or rev/s²
Static Equilibrium
- State of a body at rest, zero acceleration, and zero net force
- Center of gravity is where body's weight is concentrated
- Stability depends on center of gravity location relative to base
- Stable objects have lower centers of gravity and wider base
Conditions for Equilibrium
- First condition: Net force is zero
- Second condition: Net torque is zero
- The object is in translational and rotational equilibrium when both of these conditions are met
Equilibrant
- Force needed to balance the resultant of forces
- Equal in magnitude to the resultant force but in opposite direction
Angular Momentum
- Rotational analogue of linear momentum.
- Momentum is the product of inertia and angular velocity
- Units are kg·m²/s
- Angular momentum of a rotating object remains constant when net torque is zero.
