Exam 4: Rotational kinetics N3L-Thermodynamics Flashcards
(70 cards)
what is the rotational version of N2L?
M(A net) = I(A)α
- α = angular acceleration
what does the rotational version of N2L tell us?
the sum of all torques (moments) about an axis A is equal to a moment of inertia about an axis A times the angular acceleration of the body
- A is fixed about a point/hinge/pin
moment of inertia I(A)
positive quantity indicated how hard it is to get body rotating
what does low I(A) tell us?
mass is close to axis of rotation which makes it easy to rotate
what does high I(A) tell us?
mass far from axis of rotation
what is the equation for moment of inertia at the center of a disk?
I = 1/2mR^2
what is the equation for moment of inertia at the outside of a disk?
I = 3/2mR^2
what side of the rectangle is the length? Width?
- the longer side => L for long
- the width is the shorter side
what is the equation for moment of inertia for the center of a rectangle?
I = 1/12m(L^2 + W^2)
what is the equation for moment of inertia for the long outside of a rectangle? (i.e located perpendicular to the length side)
I = 1/12mW^2 + 1/3mL^2
what is the equation for moment of inertia for the short outside of a rectangle? (i.e perpendicular to the width)
I = 1/12mL^2 + 1/3mW^2
what is the equation for moment of inertia for the corner of a rectangle?
I = 1/3m(L^2 + W^2)
SI units of inertia (I)
kgm^2
equation for torque (moment)?
M(A) = Fd
what is the sign for CCW torque? CW?
+;-
how do you get a total moment?
you add each individual moment
what do you do if a force is not perpendicular to a line from the Axis of rotation?
you can move the location of the force anywhere along the line of action
where does gravity act on a shape?
at the center
what are the forces acting at the pin?
unknown forces called Rx and Ry that both equal 0
what is newtons 2nd law with a rigid body?
F(net vector) = ma(vector COM)
- COM = center of mass
Fluids
liquids and gases allow molecules to flow past each other
phases for materials
- solid
- liquid
- gas
- go from 1-3 by increasing temp
pressure
inside pressure and outside atmosphere push against one another
- push and pull on each side
pressure calculation
force/area
