Chapter 10 rotational motion university of virginia. Just as we began our study of newtonian dynamics by defining a force, we start our study of rotational dynamics by defining our analogue to a force, the torque. If zero net external torque angular momentum is conserved both and depend on choice of origin unlike force and momentum only depend on xyz directions. Thus, the moment of inertia is to rotational motion what the mass of an object is to translational motion. Angular momentum and its conservation angular momentum is completely analogous to linear momentum. If an object of mass m is moving in a straight line then this mass measures the inertia of the object in linear motion but in rotational motion, mass is not used to measure inertness or inertia.
Rotational dynamics pertains to objects that are rotating or moving in a curved path and involves such quantities as torque, moment of inertiarotational inertia, angular displacement in radians or less often, degrees, angular velocity radians per unit time, angular acceleration radians per unit of time squared and angular momentum.
