Engineering Rotational Dynamics

This document discusses rotational motion and provides examples. It is for a course on dynamics of rigid bodies taught at Aurora State College of Technology. The course covers rotational kinematics including angular position, velocity, and acceleration. Units for angular measurements are defined. Examples are given to calculate revolutions, angular velocity, linear speed and acceleration from rotational parameters like angular speed and acceleration over time. The instructor is Eng. Felix Paul C. Rabago and the textbook is Engineering Mechanics by R.C Hibbeler.

Introduction to Dynamics
Rotational Motion

• The kinematics of rotational motion describes the


relationships between the angle of rotation, angular
velocity, angular acceleration, and time.

Introduction to Dynamics
Rotational Motion
• Angular Position 𝜽 is the angle that the object is at
from a reference line (where 𝜃 = 0° or 0 radians)
• Units are in radians, which are dimensionless .A radian
is the angle for which the arc length on a circle of
radius 𝑟 is equal to the radius of the circle
• The arc length is given by S=𝒓𝜃 If we do a full 360°
revolution (1 rev) on the circle, the radius of the circle
is 𝑟 and the arc length is the circumference of the
circle, or 2𝜋
This means 1 rev = 360° = 2π radians

Rotational Motion
• Angular Velocity 𝝎 is defined as angular displacement
over time, just like its linear counterpart. So now, we
have an expression for the average angular velocity, in
units of radians per second or 𝑠 −1
• Angular Acceleration 𝜶 is defined as the change in
angular velocity over time, also like its linear
counterpart. We can then create an expression for the
average angular acceleration, in units of radians per
second squared, or 𝑠 −2

revolution will the disk go through in 5minutes? How far along the ground
will the wheel travel at this rate in 5 minutes ; R =2m ANS 1146 rev, 1440m

2. A disk speed up from rest at a constant rate of 2.5 rad/sec^2. what is the
final angular velocity of the disk after 18 sec. how many revolution will the
disk go through during this time period . What is the linear speed of a
point at the edge of the disk after 18 sec :R = 50cm
ANS 45 rad/s, 64.45 rev, 22.5 m/s

3. A wheel with diameter of 80cm speed up from 30 rad/sec to 80 rad/sec.
