1、Physics 1D03 - Lecture 30,1,Angular Momentum,Angular momentum of rigid bodies Newtons 2nd Law for rotational motion Torques and angular momentum in 3-D,Text sections 11.1 - 11.6,Physics 1D03 - Lecture 30,2,“Angular momentum” is the rotational analogue of linear momentum.,Recall linear momentum: for

2、a particle, p = mv .,Newtons 2nd Law: The net external force on a particle is equal to the rate of change of its momentum.,To get the corresponding angular relations for a rigid body, replace:,Physics 1D03 - Lecture 30,3,Angular momentum of a rotating rigid body:,Angular momentum, L, is the product

3、of the moment of inertia and the angular velocity.,Units: kg m2/s (no special name). Note similarity to: p=mv,Newtons 2nd Law for rotation: the torque due to external forces is equal to the rate of change of L.,For a rigid body (constant I ),L = Iw,Physics 1D03 - Lecture 30,4,Conservation of Angular

4、 momentum,There are three great conservation laws in classical mechanics:,Conservation of Energy Conservation of linear momentum and now, Conservation of Angular momentum:,In an isolated system (no external torques), the total angular momentum is constant.,Physics 1D03 - Lecture 30,5,For a symmetric

As he brings his arms in, what happens to the angular momentum?,increases decreases remains constant What happens to the angular velocity?,Physics 1D03 - Lecture 30,10,Example:A stude

9、nt sits on a rotating chair, holding two weights each of mass 3.0kg. When his arms are extended to 1.0m from the axis of rotation his angular speed is 0.75 rad/s. The students then pulls the weights horizontally inward to 0.3m from the axis of rotation. Given that I = 3.0 kg m2 for the student and c

10、hair, what is the new angular speed of the student ?,Physics 1D03 - Lecture 30,11,R,Example,Angular momentum provides a neat approach to Atwoods Machine. We will find the accelerations of the masses using “external torque = rate of change of L”.,O,Physics 1D03 - Lecture 30,12,For m1 : L1 = |r1 x p1|
