    This document outlines the key topics covered in Lecture 4 on rotation of rigid bodies: 1) Rigid bodies are objects whose size and shape do not change during rotation, such as a spinning bicycle wheel or diver in the tuck position. 2) Rigid bodies rotate about their center of mass, so an object given equal opposite forces at its corners will only rotate and not translate. 3) Rotational kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy apply to rotating rigid bodies.

    Lecture 4: Rotation of a

    rigid body
    Outline
    •
    1. Rotation

    • Rigid body = size and


    shape don’t change
    • Real molecular bonds are not
    perfectly rigid
    • E.g. a bicycle wheel (all the sticked
    held fixed), diver in the tuck
    position (rigid temporarily)
    Review of circular
    motion
    •
    2. Rotation about the center of mass

    • Object in space, give a little


    push at the corners to spin
    (2 equal forces but
    opposite direction), to only
    rotate but no translation.
    What point will it rotate
    around?
    “Center of mass”
    3. Rotational energy
    • Rotational kinetic
    energy
    • Gravitational energy of a rigid body
    Parallel axis theorem
    4. Torque
    Defining torque
    •
    Net torque
    • An object free to rotate
    about an axle can have
    a net torque but the
    axle will exert a force to
    prevent translational
    motion
    Gravitational torque
    • How to practically find the CM of an object using
    this balancing property?
    Couple (คูแรง)
    •
    5. Rotation dynamics
    •
    Rope and Pulley
    •
    6. Rolling motion
    7. Vector description of rotation
    •
    The cross product of two vectors
    Torque as a cross product
    •
    Angular momentum of a particle
    8. Angular momentum
    •
