Momentum
• For an object rolling smoothly, the motion of the
center of mass is pure translational.
s=θR vcom = ds/dt = d(θ R)/dt = ωR
vcom = ωR
• Rolling viewed as a combination of pure rotation
and pure translation
K = ½ Icomω2 + ½ M(vcom)2
vc.m. = 0.15m/s

K = K trans + K rot = Mv c.m. + Iω

Vector Product (Review)
• Vector product of vectors a and b
produce a third vector c whose
magnitude is
c = a b sin φ
whose direction follow the right hand
rule
r r r
τ = r ×F
• direction : right-hand rule
• magnitude :τ = rF sin Φ = rF⊥ = r⊥ F
Angular momentum
• Angular momentum with respect to
point O for a particle of mass m and
linear momentum p is defined as
v r r r r
l = r × p = m ( r × v)
direction: right-hand rule
magnitude:
l = r p sin φ = r mv sin φ
