Lecture 30 – November 30
Outline – Rotational motion topics (Ch. 10 and 11)

• Motions combining translation and rotation – rolling


• Kinetic energy for rotation around a moving axis
• Angular momentum
• Work in terms of angular quantities
Rolling on an inclined plane
• The gravitational force component acts
down the slope.
• The wheel “wants” to slide down the
slope, so the static friction force acts up
the slope to prevent the sliding
• The frictional force does no work
because point P is always at rest.
• The conservation of energy applies..

Conservation of Angular Momentum

Let us consider what happens if the net torque on an object or a system of objects
is zero.

= 0 so that = 0.
Angular Momentum is conserved if the net torque is zero.
Conservation of Angular Momentum
• The moment of inertia is reduced
(by pulling the arms closer to the
body).
• The moment is conserved
• The angular speed increases (to
keep constant.
