Rotational Motion Flashcards
(6 cards)
how is torque made from f and r
Force F is tangential R axis creating a torque T component
Angular velocity def + formula (form sheet)
angular velocity = rate at which something rotates or spins around an axis, how fast an angle changes over time
omega = dtheta / dt in rad/s
omega = angular velo
theta = angular displacement
dt = time
circumferential displacement (formula sheet)
x = (theta/2pi) x (2piR) = theta x r in m
work done along x to rotate the disc
W = F * x in joule
Power supplied to do work (form sheet)
P = (dw / dt) = F * (dx/dt) = F * r * (dtheta/dt) in Watt (W)
Developed torque (form sheet)
T = F * r = P / omega = J * alpha in Nm
J = moment of inertia in kg*m^2
a = angular acceleration in rad/s^2
