In-Class Activities:
motion for a rigid body in
planar motion. • Applications
2. Analyze problems involving • FBD of Rigid Bodies
translational motion. • EOM for Rigid Bodies
• Translational Motion
• Group Problem Solving
APPLICATIONS
The boat and trailer undergo
rectilinear motion. In order to
find the reactions at the trailer
wheels and the acceleration of
the boat its center of mass, we
need to draw the FBD for the
boat and trailer.

APPLICATIONS
(continued)
As the tractor raises the load, the crate will undergo curvilinear
translation if the forks do not rotate.
If the load is raised too quickly, will the crate slide to the left or
right? How fast can we raise the load before the crate will slide?
• We will limit our study of planar kinetics to rigid bodies that are
symmetric with respect to a fixed reference plane.
• As discussed in Chapter 16, when a body is subjected to general
plane motion, it undergoes a combination of translation and
rotation.
• First, a coordinate system
with its origin at an arbitrary
point P is established. The
x-y axes should not rotate
and can either be fixed or
translate with constant
velocity.

EQUATIONS OF TRANSLATIONAL MOTION
(continued)
• If a body undergoes translational motion, the equation of motion
is ΣF = m aG . This can also be written in scalar form as

EQUATIONS OF ROTATIONAL MOTION
(continued)
If point P coincides with the mass center G, this equation reduces
to the scalar equation of Σ MG = IGα .
In words: the resultant (summation) moment about the mass
center due to all the external forces is equal to the moment of
inertia about G times the angular acceleration of the body.
Thus, three independent scalar equations of motion may be used
to describe the general planar motion of a rigid body. These
equations are: Σ F = m(a )
x G x
Σ Fy = m(aG)y
Σ Fx = m(aG)x
Σ Fy = m(aG)y
Σ MG = 0

EQUATIONS OF MOTION: TRANSLATION ONLY
(continued)
When a rigid body is subjected to
curvilinear translation, it is best to
use an n-t coordinate system. Then
apply the equations of motion, as
written below, for n-t coordinates.
Σ Fn = m(aG)n
Σ Ft = m(aG)t
Σ MG = 0 or
Σ MB = e[m(aG)t] – h[m(aG)n]

GROUP PROBLEM SOLVING
(continued)
Solution: Rod BC will always remain horizontal while moving
along a curvilinear path. The acceleration of its mass center G is
the same as that of points B and C.
When θ = 0º, the FBD is: mrω2 = (3)(0.2)(52)
Σ MC = Σ (Mk)C Σ Fy = m(aG)y
(0.7)By – (0.35)(3)(9.81) = -0.35(15) Cy + 7.215 – (3)(9.81) = -15
By = 7.215 N Cy = 7.215 N
Σ MC = Σ (Mk)C Σ Fy = m(aG)y
(0.7)By – (0.35)(3)(9.81) = 0 Cy + 14.7 – (3)(9.81) = 0
By = 14.7 N Cy = 14.7 N
