The angular momentum H G of a rigid body and its
angular velocity ω have the same direction if, and only if,
ω is directed along a principal axis of inertia.
The momenta of the particles of a rigid body can be reduced
to:

= m v
H G = angular momentum about G

18.1B Principle of Impulse and Momentum
• The principle of impulse and momentum can be applied directly to the three-dimensional
motion of a rigid body,
Syst Momenta 1 + Syst Ext Imp 1-2 = Syst Momenta 2
• The free-body diagram equation is used to develop component and moment equations.
• For bodies rotating about a fixed point, eliminate the impulse of the reactions at O by
writing equation for moments of momenta and impulses about O.

Sample Problem 18.1
Rectangular plate of mass m that is suspended from two
wires is hit at D in a direction perpendicular to the plate.
Immediately after the impact, determine a) the velocity of
the mass center G, and b) the angular velocity of the plate.
STRATEGY:
• Apply the principle of impulse and momentum. Since the initial momenta is zero, the
system of impulses must be equivalent to the final system of momenta.
• Assume that the supporting cables remain taut such that the vertical velocity and the
rotation about an axis normal to the plate is zero.
• Principle of impulse and momentum yields to two equations for linear momentum and
two equations for angular momentum.
• Solve for the two horizontal components of the linear and angular velocity vectors.

Gyroscopes are used in the navigation system of the Hubble telescope, and can
also be used as sensors . Modern gyroscopes can also be MEMS (Micro Electro-
Mechanical System) devices, or based on fiber optic technology.
* Motion of a Gyroscope. Eulerian Angles *
A gyroscope consists of a rotor with its mass center fixed in space
but which can spin freely about its geometric axis and assume any
orientation.
From a reference position with gimbals and a reference diameter of
the rotor aligned, the gyroscope may be brought to any orientation
through a succession of three steps:
φ = rate of precession
θ = rate of nutation
Ψ = rate of spin
The angular velocity of the gyroscope,
ω = φ K + θ j +Ψ k
with K = − sin θ i + cos θ k
ω = −φ sin θ i + θ j + ( Ψ + φ cos θ ) k
Equation of motion,

Steady Precession of a Gyroscope
Steady precession,
θ ,φ,ψ are constant
ω = −φ sin θ i + ω z k
H O = − I ′φ sin θ i + Iω z k
Ω = −φ sin θ i + φ cosθ k
∑ M O = Ω × HO
= (Iω z − I ′φ cosθ )φ sin θ j
Couple is applied about an axis perpendicular to the precession and
spin axes
When the precession and spin axis are at a right angle,
θ = 90°
∑ O
M = IΨφ j
Gyroscope will precess about an axis perpendicular to both the
spin axis and couple axis.
Motion of an Axisymmetrical Body Under No Force
Consider motion about its mass center of an axisymmetrical
body under no force but its own weight, e.g., projectiles,
satellites, and space craft.
HG = 0 H G = constant
Define the Z axis to be aligned with H G and z in a rotating
axes system along the axis of symmetry. The x axis is chosen
to lie in the Zz plane.

• Two cases of motion of an axisymmetrical body which under
no force which involve no precession:
• Body set to spin about its axis of symmetry,
ωx = Hx = 0
ω and H G are aligned and body keeps spinning
about its axis of symmetry.
