Assume that in 5 seconds the boy has rotated by a full circle. By what angle has the girl rotated?
![Page 6: LECTURE Angular Momentum](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012714/61ad32fb097ea424003135f5/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
In order to describe the rotational motion of a solid, extended object we need something better than the speed. Since different points of the rotating object may have different speed we need something that isthe same for all points of the object. This is the angular velocity, ω.
![Page 7: LECTURE Angular Momentum](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012714/61ad32fb097ea424003135f5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
When an object rotates, we use the angular speed to describe how fast rotates.
timeangle
The angular speed is the ratio of angle (in radians) over the time required to rotate this amount.
Unit of angle:One complete circle = 1 revolution = 360o = 2π rads
rads = radiansrpm = revolutions per minute

Relationship between angular and linear speed in Rotational Motion
A point of a rotating object travels during some time a distance equal to the length of the arc of the circle it follows during its rotation:
or:
Since different points of a rotating object are at different distances from the center of rotation (which is the r) they have different (linear) speed υ. But all points have the same angular speed ω. Points near the center have small r and therefore small υ. Points far from the center of rotation have large r an therefore large υ.

Period and frequency of RotationThe time to takes a rotating object to complete a full revolution(that is to rotate a full circle or 2π radians) is called period and it is denoted by the letter capital T. The angular speed can be written as:
T 2
The inverse of the rotational period is called “frequency” of revolution. It is denoted by the letter f and the number of revolutions (circles) the object rotates per second. The unit of frequency is s-1 (1/s) and it is read inverse seconds. A more popular name is Hertz (or Hz).

The equations of the rotational motion remain the same but we need to replace the speed with angular speed and the acceleration with the angular acceleration and the distance with angle.
![Page 17: LECTURE Angular Momentum](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012714/61ad32fb097ea424003135f5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Newton’s equations for rotational motion remain also the same but we need to also replace the Force with Torque and the Mass with theMoment of Inertia (kind of “rotational mass” ).
Newton’s First law for Rotation: If no torque acts on an object, it either remains still or rotates with constant angular speed.
Newton’s Second law for Rotation: The net torque acting on an object is equal to its Moment of Inertia times its angular acceleration.
![Page 19: LECTURE Angular Momentum](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012714/61ad32fb097ea424003135f5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
TorqueIn order to calculate torque we need two things. First we need a force. Then we need a point to serve as a center of rotation.
The torque of the force with respect to that point (of rotation) is the product of the force with the distance from the point to the line (of action of the force).

![Page 25: LECTURE Angular Momentum](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012714/61ad32fb097ea424003135f5/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Torque has a direction (like the force). In order to find its direction we put our finger to the point (of rotation) with respect to which we calculate the torque and we ask ourselves. What is the direction the object would have rotated under the influence of that force? Clockwise or counter-clockwise? This is the direction of the torque.
Usually in physics clockwise rotation is negative (negative torque, negative angular velocity). We say clocks are negative.
Two torques (with respect to the same point of rotation) are opposite if they tend to rotate the object in opposite directions

To compare the `reluctance’, or mass, of two objects, accelerate them side-by-side. The one that requires the most force is the
one with the larger mass.
Mass is the measure of the reluctance that an object exhibits in response to any effort made to start it, stop it, or change its state of motion in any way.
![Page 36: LECTURE Angular Momentum](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012714/61ad32fb097ea424003135f5/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Moment of inertia (symbol: I) is the measure of the reluctance that an object exhibits in response to any effort made to change its state of rotational motion.
The moment of inertia depends on two things:
(1) the mass of the object and
(2) the distribution of mass around the axis of rotation.
The formula is I=m d2.
This says that the further the mass from the axis of rotation, the greater the moment of inertia.

A. doubles
B. becomes 4 times the original moment of inertia
C. remains the same
