Introduction
• In this week and the coming next 5 weeks, we will be
concerned with the kinetics of rigid bodies, i.e., relations
between the forces acting on a rigid body and the motion
produced.
Page 2
Equations of Motion for a Rigid Body
• Consider a rigid body acted upon
by several external forces.
Page 6
Problems Involving the Motion of a Rigid Body
• The fundamental relation between the forces
acting on a rigid body in plane motion and
the acceleration of its mass center and the
angular acceleration of the body is illustrated
in a free-body-diagram equation.
• The techniques for solving problems of
static equilibrium may be applied to solve
problems of plane motion by utilizing
- d’Alembert’s principle, or
- principle of dynamic equilibrium
• These techniques may also be applied to
problems involving plane motion of
connected rigid bodies by drawing a free-
body-diagram equation for each body and
solving the corresponding equations of
motion simultaneously.
