After receiving stitches, Louganis won gold medal in diving. Slipping, Spinning and Rolling ST 7.19 ID E3 7.1 Sample Problems Practice Problems (Basic and Advance Level) Answer Sheet of Practice Problems Greg Louganis jumping from the spring board exhibits somersaults in air before touching the water surface. After leaving the spring board, he curls his body by rolling the arms and the legs inwards. Due to this, his moment of inertia decreases and he spins in mid air with large angular speed. As he is about to touch the water surface, he stretches out his limbs. This increases his moment of inertia and he enters the water at a gentle speed. 60 108 Rotational Motion E3 7.1 Introduction. Translation is motion along a straight line but rotation is the motion of wheels, gears, motors, planets, the hands of a clock, the rotor of jet U ID engines and the blades of helicopters. First figure shows a skater gliding across the ice in a straight line with constant speed. Her motion is called translation but second figure shows her spinning at a constant rate about a vertical axis. Here motion is called rotation. D YG Up to now we have studied translatory motion of a point mass. In this chapter we will study the rotatory motion of rigid body about a fixed axis. (1) Rigid body : A rigid body is a body that can rotate with all the parts locked together and without any change in its shape. (2) System : A collection of any number of particles interacting with one another and are under consideration during analysis of a situation are said to form a system. U (3) Internal forces : All the forces exerted by various particles of the system on one another are called internal forces. These forces are alone enable the particles to form a well defined system. Internal forces between two particles are mutual (equal and opposite). (4) External forces : To move or stop an object of finite size, we have to apply a force on ST the object from outside. This force exerted on a given system is called an external force. 7.2 Centre of Mass. Centre of mass of a system (body) is a point that moves as though all the mass were concentrated there and all external forces were applied there. (1) Position vector of centre of mass for n particle system : If a system consists of n particles of masses m1 , m 2 , m 3......m n , whose positions vectors are y r1 , r2 , r3........ rn respectively then position vector of centre of mass C.M. m r  m 2 r2  m 3 r3 ............ m n rn r  1 1 m 1  m 2  m 3 ............ m n m1 r1 m2 r r2 m3 r3 x Rotational Motion 109 Hence the centre of mass of n particles is a weighted average of the position vectors of n particles making up the system. m r  m 2 r2 (2) Position vector of centre of mass for two particle system : r  1 1 m1  m 2 60 and the centre of mass lies between the particles on the line joining them. r r If two masses are equal i.e. m1  m 2 , then position vector of centre of mass r  1 2 2 (3) Important points about centre of mass E3 (i) The position of centre of mass is independent of the co-ordinate system chosen. ID (ii) The position of centre of mass depends upon the shape of the body and distribution of mass. Example : The centre of mass of a circular disc is within the material of the body while that of a circular ring is outside the material of the body. U (iii) In symmetrical bodies in which the distribution of mass is homogenous, the centre of mass coincides with the geometrical centre or centre of symmetry of the body. D YG (iv) Position of centre of mass for different bodies Body Position of centre of mass (a) Uniform hollow sphere Centre of sphere (b) Uniform solid sphere Centre of sphere (c) Uniform circular ring Centre of ring (d) Uniform circular disc Centre of disc U S. No. Uniform rod Centre of rod (f) A plane lamina (Square, Rectangle, Parallelogram) Point of inter section of diagonals (g) Triangular plane lamina Point of inter section of medians (h) Rectangular or cubical block Points of inter section of diagonals (i) Hollow cylinder Middle point of the axis of cylinder (j) Solid cylinder Middle point of the axis of cylinder (k) Cone or pyramid On the axis of the cone at point distance ST (e) 3h from the vertex where h is the height 4 of cone 110 Rotational Motion (v) The centre of mass changes its position only under the translatory motion. There is no effect of rotatory motion on centre of mass of the body. (vi) If the origin is at the centre of mass, then the sum of the moments of the masses of the 60 system about the centre of mass is zero i.e.  m i ri  0. (vii) If a system of particles of masses m 1 , m 2 , m 3 ,...... move with velocities v 1 , v 2 , v 3 ,......  m iv i.  mi E3 then the velocity of centre of mass v cm  (viii) If a system of particles of masses m1 , m 2 , m 3 ,...... move with accelerations a1 , a 2 , a 3 ,...... then the acceleration of centre of mass A cm  ID  m i ai mi (ix) If r is a position vector of centre of mass of a system U then velocity of centre of mass v cm   dr d  m1 r1  m 2 r2  m 3 r 3 ......     dt dt  m1  m 2  m 3 ......    D YG (x) Acceleration of centre of mass A cm   d v cm d 2 r d 2  m1 r1  m 2 r2 .......     dt dt 2 dt 2  m1  m 2  m 3 .......    (xi) Force on a rigid body F  M A cm  M d2 r dt 2 (xii) For an isolated system external force on the body is zero d    v cm   0  v cm  constant. dt   U FM i.e., centre of mass of an isolated system moves with uniform velocity along a straight-line ST path.

It is also known as axial vector. For anti-clockwise sense of rotation direction of  is perpendicular to the plane, outward and along the axis of rotation and vice-versa. E3 (4) 2 radian  360   1 revolution. (5) If a body rotates about a fixed axis then all the particles will have same angular ID displacement (although linear displacement will differ from particle to particle in accordance with the distance of particles from the axis of rotation). 7.4 Angular Velocity. The angular displacement per unit time is defined as angular velocity.  where  is the angular displacement. t  d (1) Instantaneous angular velocity   lim  Q t 0 t dt D YG U If a particle moves from P to Q in time t ,   (2) Average angular velocity  av  total angular displaceme nt  2   1  t 2  t1 total time  P (3) Unit : Radian/sec (4) Dimension : [M 0 L0 T 1 ] which is same as that of frequency.

The rate of change of angular velocity is defined as angular acceleration. If particle has angular velocity  1 at time t 1 and angular velocity  2 at time t 2 then, Angular acceleration    2  1 t 2  t1 Rotational Motion 113  d  d 2    (1) Instantaneous angular acceleration   lim. t 0 t dt dt 2 (2) Unit : rad/sec 2 (4) If   0 , circular or rotational motion is said to be uniform.

It is the property of a body due to which it opposes any change in its state of rest or of uniform rotation. E3 (1) Moment of inertia of a particle I  mr 2 ; where r is the perpendicular distance of particle from rotational axis. (2) Moment of inertia of a body made up of number of particles (discrete distribution) I  m 1 r12  m 2 r22  m 3 r32 ....... U  dI  dm r 2 i.e., I  r 2 dm ID (3) Moment of inertia of a continuous distribution of mass, treating the element of mass dm at position r as particle r1 m2 m1 r2 D YG r m r3 r dm m3 (4) Dimension : [ML2 T 0 ] (5) S.I. unit : kgm2. (6) Moment of inertia depends on mass, distribution of mass and on the position of axis of U rotation. (7) Moment of inertia does not depend on angular velocity, angular acceleration, torque, ST angular momentum and rotational kinetic energy. (8) It is not a vector as direction (clockwise or anti-clockwise) is not to be specified and also not a scalar as it has different values in different directions. Actually it is a tensor quantity. (9) In case of a hollow and solid body of same mass, radius and shape for a given axis, moment of inertia of hollow body is greater than that for the solid body because it depends upon the mass distribution. 7.8 Radius of Gyration. Radius of gyration of a body about a given axis is the perpendicular distance of a point from the axis, where if whole mass of the body were concentrated, the body shall have the same moment of inertia as it has with the actual distribution of mass. Rotational Motion 117 When square of radius of gyration is multiplied with the mass of the body gives the moment of inertia of the body about the given axis. I. M I  Mk 2 or k  m m m From the formula of discrete distribution I  mr 1  mr 2  mr 3 .......  mr n2 2 2 If m1 = m2 = m3 =....... = m then I  m(r1  r2  r3 .......... rn2 ) 2 2 2 ID........(ii) By equating (i) and (ii) m r4 m........(i) From the definition of Radius of gyration, I  Mk 2 E3 2 r1 60 Here k is called radius of gyration. r2 r3 r5 k M 2 nmk 2 2  m(r1  r2  r3 ..........  rn2 ) 2 2 [As M  nm ] 2 2 D YG k 2 r1  r2  r3 ...........  rn2 n 2  2 U Mk 2  m(r1  r2  r3 ............  rn2 ) Hence radius of gyration of a body about a given axis is equal to root mean square distance of the constituent particles of the body from the given axis. (1) Radius of gyration (k ) depends on shape and size of the body, position and configuration of the axis of rotation, distribution of mass of the body w.r.t. the axis of rotation. U (2) Radius of gyration (k ) does not depends on the mass of body. (3) Dimension [M 0 L1 T 0 ]. ST (4) S.I. unit : Meter. (5) Significance of radius of gyration : Through this concept a real body (particularly irregular) is replaced by a point mass for dealing its rotational motion. Example : In case of a disc rotating about an axis through its centre of mass and perpendicular to its plane k (1 2)MR 2 I R   M M 2 So instead of disc we can assume a point mass M at a distance (R / 2 ) from the axis of rotation for dealing the rotational motion of the disc. Note :  For a given body inertia is constant whereas moment of inertia is variable. 118 Rotational Motion 7.9 Theorem of Parallel Axes. Moment of inertia of a body about a given axis I is equal to the sum of moment of inertia of the body about an axis parallel to given axis and passing through centre of mass of the body Ig IG I 60 and Ma 2 where M is the mass of the body and a is the perpendicular distance between the two axes. I  I g  Ma 2 a G E3 Example: Moment of inertia of a disc about an axis through its 1 centre and perpendicular to the plane is MR 2 , so moment of inertia 2 about an axis through its tangent and perpendicular to the plane will be  I 1 MR 2  MR 2 2 3 MR 2 2 I R IG G U I ID I  Ig  Ma2 7.10 Theorem of Perpendicular Axes. D YG According to this theorem the sum of moment of inertia of a plane lamina about two mutually perpendicular axes lying in its plane is equal to its moment of inertia about an axis perpendicular to the plane of lamina and passing through the point of intersection of first two axes. ST U Iz  I x  Iy Z X Y Example : Moment of inertia of a disc about an axis through its centre of mass and 1 perpendicular to its plane is MR 2 , so if the disc is in x–y plane then by theorem of 2 Z ID perpendicular axes X I I I i.e. ID O z x y   1 MR 2  2 ID 2 1 ID  MR 2 4 [As ring is symmetrical body so I x  I y  I D ] Y Rotational Motion 119 Note :  In case of symmetrical two-dimensional bodies as moment of inertia for all axes passing through the centre of mass and in the plane of body will be same so the two axes in the plane of body need not be perpendicular to each other. 60 7.11 Moment of Inertia of Two Point Masses About Their Centre of Mass. Let m 1 and m 2 be two masses distant r from each-other and r1 and r2 be the distances of their centre of mass from m 1 and m 2 respectively, then (1) r1  r2  r E3 (2) m 1 r1  m 2 r2 (3) r1  Centre of mass m1 r1 m2 r and m1  m 2 r2  m1 r m1  m 2 r2 ID (4) I  m 1 r12  m 2 r22 m2  m m  m1m 2 (5) I   1 2  r 2   r 2 [where   is known as reduced mass   m 1 and   m 2.] m1  m 2 m1  m 2  derived from above formula.
