Chapters 8-10

center of mass:            Mtotrcm = m1r1 + m2r2+ m3r3 + ....

velocity of center of mass: Mtotvcm = m1v1 + m2v2+ m3v3 + ....

 

Fnet ext = Macm

momentum: p = mv

 

Conservation of momentum (net external force = 0): pinitial = pfinal

 

Kinetic energy, K = (1/2)mv2  K = (1/2)Iw2  for rotating objects

K = (1/2)m vcm 2  + (1/2)Iw2 for objects rolling w.o slipping

 

For objects rolling w.o slipping, : vcm = wr   (cm = center-of-mass)

 

Gravitational  Potential Energy, U = mgh

 

Impulse: I = Dp = FavDt

 

For a vectors A,B,C with magnitude A,B,C and direction:

If C = A x B;    C = ABsinq    with direction of C given by the right hand rule

i x j = k; j x k = i; k x i = j

 

moment of inertia:       I = mr2 for a single particle

 

torque:                          t = r x F  =  Ia

 

angular momentum:                L = r x p  or  L = Iw                where p = mv

 

parallel axis theorem:  I = ICM + Mh2           

 

For constant angular acceleration:

q = qo + wot + 1/2at2

w = wo + at

w2 = (wo )2 + 2a(Dq)

 

For rotating objects: vtan = wr

 

circumference of a circle = 2pr
