– Each problem is worth 10 points.• Note that total possible score for the course is 1,000 points (see the
course syllabus)
• The difficulty level is about the same as the level of textbook problems.
• You may make a single crib sheet– you may write on both sides of an 8.5” × 11.0” sheet

Rotational Kinetic Energy • Consider a mass M on the end of a string being spun
around in a circle with radius r and angular frequency ω– Mass has speed v = ω r– Mass has kinetic energy K = ½ M v2 = ½ M ω2 r2
• Consider a disk with radius R and mass M, spinning with angular frequency ω– Each “piece” of disk has speed vi = ωri– Each “piece” has kinetic energy Ki = ½ mi v2 = ½ mi ω2 ri

Torque• Rotational effect of force. Tells how effective
force is at twisting or rotating an object.τ = ± r Fperpendicular = r F sin θ
τ = ±rperpendicular F rperpendicular = lever arm– Units N m– Sign, CCW rotation is positive
F⊥
Torque• Torque measures the effectiveness of a force for
twisting or turning an object.– Magnitude:
– Sign:• If a torque causes a CCW rotation, assign “+” sign.• If a torque causes a CW rotation, assign “-” sign.
– Direction:• If a torque causes a CCW rotation, the torque’s direction is “out
of” the plane and normal to the plane.• If a torque causes a CW rotation, the torque’s direction is “into”
the plane and normal to the plane.• Torque is a vector quantity.• Units: N⋅m
– But, torque is not a form of energy.• Torque is denoted by τ

Example 8.6• The beam’s weight is 425 N. For equilibrium, what should be the
magnitudes of the forces?
The entire gravitational forceacts at the center of mass(recall in Ch 7).
Choose a rotation axis.
For Στ = 0 (rotational equilibrium), calculate and add all the torques.* torque due to gravity: τg = (lever arm)⋅(force) = +(2.44m / 2)⋅(425N)
= +518.5 N⋅m(We assign “+” sign, because this torque causes a CCW rotation.)
* torque due to F1: τF1 = (lever arm)⋅(force) = –(2.44m–1.00m)⋅(F1) = –(1.44m)⋅(F1)
(We assign “–” sign, because this torque causes a CW rotation.)Στ = τg + τF1 + τF2 = +518.5 N⋅m – (1.44m)⋅(F1) + 0 = 0 F1 = 360 N
For ΣF = 0 (translational equilibrium), calculate and add all the forces.ΣFy = F1 + F2 – mg = 360 N + F2 – 425 N = 0 F2 = 65 N

Energy Conservation• Friction causes an object to roll, but if it rolls w/o
slipping friction does NO work!– W = F d cos θ θ is zero for point in contact
• No dissipated work, energy is conserved
• Need to include both translation and rotation kinetic energy. – K = ½ m v2 + ½ I ω2

DemoYou are sitting on a freely rotating bar-stool with your arms stretched out and a heavy glass mug in each hand. Your friend gives you a twist and you start rotating around a vertical axis though the center of the stool. You can assume that the bearing the stool turns on is frictionless, and that there is no net external torque present once you have started spinning. You now pull your arms and hands (and mugs) close to your body.
