1 0:00:04 --> 00:00:10 You see here the topics that will be on your plate on Monday. 2 00:00:09 --> 00:00:15 It's clearly not possible for me 3 00:00:12 --> 00:00:18 in one exam to cover all these topics, 4 00:00:15 --> 00:00:21 so I will have to make a choice Monday. 5 00:00:18 --> 00:00:24 Today I also have to make a choice. 6 00:00:20 --> 00:00:26 I cannot do justice to all these topics in any depth, 7 00:00:23 --> 00:00:29 so I will butterfly over them 8 00:00:24 --> 00:00:30 and some of them I won't even touch at all. 9 00:00:28 --> 00:00:34 However, what is not covered today may well be on the exam. 10 00:00:32 --> 00:00:38 You will get loads of equations. 11 00:00:35 --> 00:00:41 Almost every equation that I could think of 12 00:00:38 --> 00:00:44 will be on your exam. 13 00:00:39 --> 00:00:45 There's also special tutoring this weekend-- 14 00:00:43 --> 00:00:49 you can check that on the Web-- Saturday and Sunday. 15 00:00:47 --> 00:00:53 Let's start with a completely inelastic collision. 16 00:00:55 --> 00:01:01 Completely inelastic collision. 17 00:01:02 --> 00:01:08 We have mass m1, we have mass m2. 18 00:01:05 --> 00:01:11 It's a one-dimensional problem. 19 00:01:08 --> 00:01:14 This one has velocity v1, and this has velocity v2. 20 00:01:13 --> 00:01:19 They collide, and after the collision they are together-- 21 00:01:18 --> 00:01:24 because that's what it means 22 00:01:20 --> 00:01:26 when the collision is completely inelastic-- 23 00:01:23 --> 00:01:29 and they have a velocity, v prime. 24 00:01:26 --> 00:01:32 If there is no net external force on the system, 25 00:01:31 --> 00:01:37 momentum must be conserved. 26 00:01:33 --> 00:01:39 So I now have that m1 v1 plus m2 v2 27 00:01:39 --> 00:01:45 must be m1 plus m2 times v prime. 28 00:01:45 --> 00:01:51 One equation with one unknown-- v prime follows immediately. 29 00:01:52 --> 00:01:58 You may say, 30 00:01:53 --> 00:01:59 "Gee, you should really have put arrows over here." 31 00:01:55 --> 00:02:01 Well, in the case that it is a one-dimensional collision, 32 00:01:58 --> 00:02:04 you can leave the arrows off 33 00:01:59 --> 00:02:05 because the signs automatically take care of that. 34 00:02:03 --> 00:02:09 Kinetic energy is not conserved. 35 00:02:05 --> 00:02:11 Before the collision, your kinetic energy 36 00:02:12 --> 00:02:18 equals one-half m1 v1 squared plus one-half m2 v2 squared. 37 00:02:21 --> 00:02:27 After the collision, kinetic energy 38 00:02:26 --> 00:02:32 equals one-half m1 plus m2 times v prime squared. 39 00:02:32 --> 00:02:38 And you can easily prove that this is always less than that 40 00:02:36 --> 00:02:42 in case of a completely inelastic collision. 41 00:02:39 --> 00:02:45 There's always kinetic energy destroyed, 42 00:02:43 --> 00:02:49 which then comes out in the form of heat. 43 00:02:47 --> 00:02:53 44 00:02:49 --> 00:02:55 Let's do now an elastic collision. 45 00:02:54 --> 00:03:00 And I add the word "completely" elastic, 46 00:02:57 --> 00:03:03 but "elastic" itself is enough 47 00:02:59 --> 00:03:05 because that means that kinetic energy is conserved. 48 00:03:03 --> 00:03:09 I start with the same initial condition: m1 v1, m2 v2, 49 00:03:08 --> 00:03:14 but now, after the collision, 50 00:03:13 --> 00:03:19 m1 could either go this way or this way, I don't know. 51 00:03:18 --> 00:03:24 So this could be v1 prime, this could be v1 prime. 52 00:03:22 --> 00:03:28 m2, however, will always go into this direction. 53 00:03:28 --> 00:03:34 That's clear, because if you get hit from behind by object one, 54 00:03:33 --> 00:03:39 after the collision, you obviously go in this direction. 55 00:03:37 --> 00:03:43 Again, we don't have to put the arrows over it, 56 00:03:40 --> 00:03:46 because the signs take care of it in a one-dimensional case. 57 00:03:44 --> 00:03:50 This will be plus, then. 58 00:03:45 --> 00:03:51 That could be... you could adopt that as your convention, 59 00:03:48 --> 00:03:54 and if it goes in this direction, 60 00:03:50 --> 00:03:56 then it will be negative. 61 00:03:52 --> 00:03:58 So if you find, for v1 prime, minus something, 62 00:03:54 --> 00:04:00 it means it's bounced back. 63 00:03:56 --> 00:04:02 So now we can apply the conservation of momentum 64 00:04:01 --> 00:04:07 if there is no external force on the system. 65 00:04:04 --> 00:04:10 Internal force is fine. 66 00:04:06 --> 00:04:12 All right, so now we have 67 00:04:07 --> 00:04:13 m1 v1 plus m2 v2 equals m1 v1 prime plus m2 v2 prime-- 68 00:04:20 --> 00:04:26 conservation of momentum. 69 00:04:22 --> 00:04:28 Now we get the conservation of kinetic energy, 70 00:04:24 --> 00:04:30 because we know it's an elastic collision. 71 00:04:26 --> 00:04:32 One-half m1 v1 squared, one-half m2 v2 squared-- 72 00:04:34 --> 00:04:40 that's before the collision. 73 00:04:37 --> 00:04:43 After the collision, one-half m1 v1 prime squared 74 00:04:42 --> 00:04:48 plus one-half m2 v2 prime squared. 75 00:04:46 --> 00:04:52 Two equations with two unknowns 76 00:04:50 --> 00:04:56 and in principle, you can solve for v1 prime and for v2 prime, 77 00:04:54 --> 00:05:00 except that it could be time-consuming. 78 00:04:57 --> 00:05:03 And so on exams, what is normally done 79 00:04:59 --> 00:05:05 when you get a problem like that... 80 00:05:01 --> 00:05:07 Normally you get a problem whereby either m1 is made m2 81 00:05:06 --> 00:05:12 or m1 is much, much larger than m2 82 00:05:09 --> 00:05:15 or m1 is much, much smaller than m2, 83 00:05:13 --> 00:05:19 like banging a basketball onto a Ping-Pong ball 84 00:05:16 --> 00:05:22 or a Ping-Pong ball onto a basketball. 85 00:05:19 --> 00:05:25 I will do a very simple example 86 00:05:22 --> 00:05:28 whereby I will take now for you m1 equals m2, 87 00:05:27 --> 00:05:33 and I will call that m 88 00:05:29 --> 00:05:35 and I will even simplify the problem by making v2 zero, 89 00:05:33 --> 00:05:39 so the second object is standing still. 90 00:05:36 --> 00:05:42 One-dimensional collision, one hits that object. 91 00:05:40 --> 00:05:46 Very special case. 92 00:05:42 --> 00:05:48 So the conservation of momentum now becomes much simpler. 93 00:05:47 --> 00:05:53 m times v1-- there is no v2-- 94 00:05:51 --> 00:05:57 equals m v1 prime plus m v2 prime. 95 00:05:55 --> 00:06:01 Conservation of kinetic energy 96 00:05:59 --> 00:06:05 is one-half m v1 squared equals one-half m v1 prime squared 97 00:06:10 --> 00:06:16 plus one-half m v2 prime squared. 98 00:06:16 --> 00:06:22 99 00:06:18 --> 00:06:24 Notice that now I lose my "m"s, which is very convenient. 100 00:06:22 --> 00:06:28 Here I lose my one-half "m"s, even 101 00:06:24 --> 00:06:30 and this is very easy to solve. 102 00:06:28 --> 00:06:34 If you square this equation 103 00:06:29 --> 00:06:35 you get something that will look very similar to this. 104 00:06:32 --> 00:06:38 If you square it, 105 00:06:34 --> 00:06:40 you get v1 squared equals v1 prime squared 106 00:06:39 --> 00:06:45 plus v2 prime squared plus two v1 prime v2 prime. 107 00:06:46 --> 00:06:52 And compare this equation with this equation-- 108 00:06:49 --> 00:06:55 they're almost identical, except for this term, 109 00:06:52 --> 00:06:58 so this term must be zero. 110 00:06:54 --> 00:07:00 But we know that v2 prime is not zero. 111 00:06:58 --> 00:07:04 It got kicked and so it'll go forward. 112 00:07:01 --> 00:07:07 So what that means, then, is that v1 prime equals zero 113 00:07:05 --> 00:07:11 and if v1 prime equals zero, you see that v2 prime equals v1. 114 00:07:10 --> 00:07:16 And this is that classic case 115 00:07:14 --> 00:07:20 whereby a ball hits another ball. 116 00:07:17 --> 00:07:23 This one has no speed. 117 00:07:20 --> 00:07:26 It hits it with a certain velocity, v1. 118 00:07:24 --> 00:07:30 They have the same mass. 119 00:07:25 --> 00:07:31 After the collision, this one stands still 120 00:07:28 --> 00:07:34 and this one takes over the speed. 121 00:07:30 --> 00:07:36 Famous Newton's Cradle. 122 00:07:32 --> 00:07:38 You see it often with pendulums. 123 00:07:34 --> 00:07:40 It is the logo on the 8.01 home page, 124 00:07:36 --> 00:07:42 and I showed you a demonstration here 125 00:07:39 --> 00:07:45 when we discussed that in lectures. 126 00:07:41 --> 00:07:47 127 00:07:43 --> 00:07:49 All right, let's move on, and let's do something now 128 00:07:47 --> 00:07:53 on torques, angular momentum, rotation 129 00:07:55 --> 00:08:01 and let's discuss the Atwood machine. 130 00:07:59 --> 00:08:05 The Atwood machine is a clever device 131 00:08:02 --> 00:08:08 that allows you to measure, to a reasonable degree of accuracy, 132 00:08:06 --> 00:08:12 the gravitational acceleration. 133 00:08:08 --> 00:08:14 134 00:08:10 --> 00:08:16 Here's a pulley, and the pulley has mass m, has radius R. 135 00:08:15 --> 00:08:21 It's solid, so it's a solid disk-- 136 00:08:20 --> 00:08:26 rotates, frictionless, about point P, radius R. 137 00:08:26 --> 00:08:32 And there is a rope here, near massless-- we ignore the mass. 138 00:08:32 --> 00:08:38 Mass m2 is here and mass m1 is here, 139 00:08:36 --> 00:08:42 and let's assume that m2 is larger than m1. 140 00:08:41 --> 00:08:47 So this will be accelerated in this direction, 141 00:08:44 --> 00:08:50 this will be accelerated in this direction, 142 00:08:47 --> 00:08:53 and this will start to rotate with angular velocity omega, 143 00:08:51 --> 00:08:57 which will be a function of time. 144 00:08:55 --> 00:09:01 145 00:08:57 --> 00:09:03 And now the first thing we want to do 146 00:09:00 --> 00:09:06 is to make up "free-body" diagrams. 147 00:09:03 --> 00:09:09 "Free-body" diagrams, for this one, is easy. 148 00:09:06 --> 00:09:12 m1 g down... and T1 up. 149 00:09:14 --> 00:09:20 For this one, we have m2 g down and we have T2 up. 150 00:09:24 --> 00:09:30 151 00:09:27 --> 00:09:33 For the pulley, it's a little bit more complicated. 152 00:09:32 --> 00:09:38 This is that point P. 153 00:09:34 --> 00:09:40 If here is a tension T1 that's pulling down on the pulley-- 154 00:09:38 --> 00:09:44 so this is T1-- 155 00:09:40 --> 00:09:46 and this T2 is pulling down on the pulley-- so there's T2-- 156 00:09:48 --> 00:09:54 it has a mass, so it has weight mg. 157 00:09:51 --> 00:09:57 The sum of all forces on the pulley must be zero; 158 00:09:54 --> 00:10:00 otherwise it would accelerate itself down, which it doesn't. 159 00:09:57 --> 00:10:03 And so there has to be a force up-- I'll call it n. 160 00:10:01 --> 00:10:07 And that force n has to cancel out all these three forces. 161 00:10:06 --> 00:10:12 So that must be T1 plus T2 plus mg. 162 00:10:09 --> 00:10:15 We will not need it any further in our calculations, 163 00:10:13 --> 00:10:19 but there has to be a force to hold that in place, so to speak. 164 00:10:19 --> 00:10:25 So now we're going to calculate the acceleration 165 00:10:23 --> 00:10:29 under the condition that the rope does not slip. 166 00:10:27 --> 00:10:33 That means there is friction with the pulley-- 167 00:10:30 --> 00:10:36 not friction here, but here. 168 00:10:32 --> 00:10:38 Otherwise, the rope would slip, the rope would slip. 169 00:10:35 --> 00:10:41 What it means, if there is no slip, 170 00:10:38 --> 00:10:44 that if the rope moves one centimeter 171 00:10:40 --> 00:10:46 that the wheel also turns 172 00:10:42 --> 00:10:48 at the circumference one centimeter. 173 00:10:44 --> 00:10:50 That's what it means when there is no slip. 174 00:10:46 --> 00:10:52 That means the velocity of the rope-- 175 00:10:51 --> 00:10:57 v of r, v of the rope-- 176 00:10:54 --> 00:11:00 must be omega times R of the pulley. 177 00:10:58 --> 00:11:04 That's what "no slip" means. 178 00:11:01 --> 00:11:07 179 00:11:04 --> 00:11:10 So the acceleration-- 180 00:11:06 --> 00:11:12 which is the derivative of that velocity of the rope-- 181 00:11:11 --> 00:11:17 A, is omega dot times R, which is alpha times R. 182 00:11:16 --> 00:11:22 Omega is the angular velocity 183 00:11:18 --> 00:11:24 and alpha is the angular acceleration. 184 00:11:20 --> 00:11:26 This is a condition... it is an important condition for no slip. 185 00:11:25 --> 00:11:31 So let's now start at object number one 186 00:11:28 --> 00:11:34 and write down Newton's second law. 187 00:11:32 --> 00:11:38 I call this the positive direction for object one 188 00:11:35 --> 00:11:41 and I call this the positive direction for object two-- 189 00:11:38 --> 00:11:44 just easier for me. 190 00:11:39 --> 00:11:45 So we get T1 minus m1 g must be m1 a-- one equation. 191 00:11:49 --> 00:11:55 I don't know what T1 is, I don't know what a is. 192 00:11:53 --> 00:11:59 Second equation, for this one. 193 00:11:55 --> 00:12:01 I call this the positive direction. 194 00:11:58 --> 00:12:04 m2 g minus T2 must be m2 a-- second equation. 195 00:12:07 --> 00:12:13 One unknown has been added, so I need more. 196 00:12:10 --> 00:12:16 Of course I need more. 197 00:12:12 --> 00:12:18 I also have to think about the pulley. 198 00:12:16 --> 00:12:22 The pulley... the net force on the pulley is zero. 199 00:12:19 --> 00:12:25 That's why this stays in place, but it is going to rotate 200 00:12:23 --> 00:12:29 because this force T2 is larger than this T1. 201 00:12:27 --> 00:12:33 There is a torque relative to that point P, 202 00:12:30 --> 00:12:36 and torque is defined as r cross F. 203 00:12:35 --> 00:12:41 204 00:12:38 --> 00:12:44 The torque relative to point P, 205 00:12:41 --> 00:12:47 the magnitude is this position vector times this force. 206 00:12:47 --> 00:12:53 That is a torque in the blackboard. 207 00:12:49 --> 00:12:55 What is in the blackboard, I will call positive. 208 00:12:52 --> 00:12:58 The torque, due to this force, is out of the blackboard, 209 00:12:56 --> 00:13:02 and I will call that negative. 210 00:12:58 --> 00:13:04 Since this angle is 90 degrees, 211 00:13:00 --> 00:13:06 I simply get that the torque relative to point P 212 00:13:04 --> 00:13:10 equals the radius of the cylinder-- 213 00:13:07 --> 00:13:13 the radius of that pulley-- times T2. 214 00:13:10 --> 00:13:16 That's the positive part, 215 00:13:12 --> 00:13:18 and the negative part is the radius times T1. 216 00:13:16 --> 00:13:22 217 00:13:18 --> 00:13:24 Notice that this force and this force go through P, 218 00:13:23 --> 00:13:29 do not contribute to the torque. 219 00:13:25 --> 00:13:31 And that now equals 220 00:13:27 --> 00:13:33 the moment of inertia about that point P, times alpha. 221 00:13:31 --> 00:13:37 But since we have no slip, alpha is a divided by R. 222 00:13:35 --> 00:13:41 So it's the moment of inertia about point P 223 00:13:39 --> 00:13:45 times a divided by R. 224 00:13:41 --> 00:13:47 But since it is a rotating disk 225 00:13:44 --> 00:13:50 which is rotating about its center of mass... 226 00:13:46 --> 00:13:52 I know the moment of inertia, I looked that up-- 227 00:13:49 --> 00:13:55 if you need it during your exam, you will find that in the exam-- 228 00:13:53 --> 00:13:59 that is one-half MR squared... 229 00:13:57 --> 00:14:03 one-half MR squared times a divided by R 230 00:14:02 --> 00:14:08 and I lose one R, and so I find, then, 231 00:14:07 --> 00:14:13 that T2 minus T1 equals one-half Ma. 232 00:14:13 --> 00:14:19 Notice I also lose my second R. 233 00:14:14 --> 00:14:20 And so now I have a third equation 234 00:14:18 --> 00:14:24 and I can solve for T2, I can solve for T1 235 00:14:22 --> 00:14:28 and I can solve for a. 236 00:14:25 --> 00:14:31 And you can do that as well as I can. 237 00:14:28 --> 00:14:34 If you find the result, 238 00:14:29 --> 00:14:35 you should always do a little bit of testing 239 00:14:32 --> 00:14:38 to make sure that your result makes sense. 240 00:14:35 --> 00:14:41 And what you should do is you should say... 241 00:14:39 --> 00:14:45 You should make sure that m2 g is larger than T2. 242 00:14:47 --> 00:14:53 That's a must-- otherwise, it's not being accelerated down. 243 00:14:52 --> 00:14:58 You should also check that T1 comes out larger than m1 g. 244 00:14:56 --> 00:15:02 That's also a must. 245 00:14:57 --> 00:15:03 And you should also check that T2 be larger than T1. 246 00:15:01 --> 00:15:07 Otherwise, the pulley wouldn't rotate in clockwise direction. 247 00:15:05 --> 00:15:11 It would also be useful, which is a trivial check, 248 00:15:09 --> 00:15:15 to stick in your results m1 equals m2. 249 00:15:13 --> 00:15:19 That should give you that the acceleration should be zero 250 00:15:17 --> 00:15:23 and it should give you that T1 equals T2. 251 00:15:20 --> 00:15:26 Those are obvious things and that can be done very simply. 252 00:15:23 --> 00:15:29 It takes you no more than ten seconds. 253 00:15:25 --> 00:15:31 And if it's... any one of these is not met, 254 00:15:27 --> 00:15:33 then somewhere you slipped up 255 00:15:29 --> 00:15:35 and it will give you an opportunity 256 00:15:30 --> 00:15:36 to go over the problem again. 257 00:15:32 --> 00:15:38 258 00:15:34 --> 00:15:40 All right, let's now do another problem-- 259 00:15:37 --> 00:15:43 simple harmonic oscillation of a physical pendulum. 260 00:15:42 --> 00:15:48 261 00:15:44 --> 00:15:50 I have here a rod-- mass M, length l-- 262 00:15:50 --> 00:15:56 rotating here about an axis perpendicular to the blackboard 263 00:15:55 --> 00:16:01 without friction. 264 00:15:57 --> 00:16:03 Here is the center of the rod, and let this angle be theta. 265 00:16:03 --> 00:16:09 266 00:16:07 --> 00:16:13 There is a torque relative to point P. 267 00:16:09 --> 00:16:15 There is also a force that goes through point P. 268 00:16:13 --> 00:16:19 I'm not even interested in that force. 269 00:16:15 --> 00:16:21 I know that it's here, mg. 270 00:16:17 --> 00:16:23 Since I'm going to take the torque relative to point P, 271 00:16:21 --> 00:16:27 I don't worry about the force, 272 00:16:23 --> 00:16:29 but there has to be a force through point P. 273 00:16:26 --> 00:16:32 Otherwise this ruler would be accelerated down 274 00:16:29 --> 00:16:35 with acceleration g, if this is the only force there were. 275 00:16:33 --> 00:16:39 But we know that's not the case, it's going to swing. 276 00:16:36 --> 00:16:42 So there has to be a force to P. 277 00:16:37 --> 00:16:43 I don't want to know what it is, but there has to be one. 278 00:16:39 --> 00:16:45 So the torque relative to point P-- the magnitude-- 279 00:16:45 --> 00:16:51 is the position vector, r of P, from here to here 280 00:16:51 --> 00:16:57 crossed with this force. 281 00:16:55 --> 00:17:01 And so that makes it one-half l times mg 282 00:17:04 --> 00:17:10 times the sine of the angle, and that's... the angle is theta 283 00:17:08 --> 00:17:14 so that is times the sine of theta. 284 00:17:12 --> 00:17:18 The cross product has the sine of the angle in it. 285 00:17:16 --> 00:17:22 So this is the torque relative to point P 286 00:17:18 --> 00:17:24 which also must be 287 00:17:20 --> 00:17:26 the moment of inertia about point P times alpha. 288 00:17:24 --> 00:17:30 No different from what we just had with the pulley. 289 00:17:26 --> 00:17:32 So alpha equals omega dot. 290 00:17:32 --> 00:17:38 It's also theta double dot. 291 00:17:35 --> 00:17:41 This omega is the angular velocity-- it's d theta/dt 292 00:17:41 --> 00:17:47 and the derivative gives me the angular acceleration. 293 00:17:47 --> 00:17:53 294 00:17:50 --> 00:17:56 There has to be a minus sign here, that's important 295 00:17:53 --> 00:17:59 because the torque is restoring-- 296 00:17:55 --> 00:18:01 the same situation we had when we had a spring. 297 00:18:00 --> 00:18:06 We were oscillating a spring, the spring force is minus kx. 298 00:18:04 --> 00:18:10 The minus sign here plays exactly the same role. 299 00:18:08 --> 00:18:14 So I can write down here 300 00:18:11 --> 00:18:17 minus I of p theta double dot. 301 00:18:15 --> 00:18:21 Now, if we take a small angle approximation-- 302 00:18:18 --> 00:18:24 "small angle approximation"-- 303 00:18:24 --> 00:18:30 then the sine of theta is approximately theta, 304 00:18:30 --> 00:18:36 if theta is in radians. 305 00:18:32 --> 00:18:38 And so I can replace now the sine of theta here by theta 306 00:18:37 --> 00:18:43 and so now I find, if I bring this to the other side, 307 00:18:44 --> 00:18:50 I get theta double dot plus one-half lMg 308 00:18:50 --> 00:18:56 divided by the moment of inertia about point P 309 00:18:53 --> 00:18:59 times theta equals zero. 310 00:18:55 --> 00:19:01 Needless to say that I am happy like a clam at high tide 311 00:19:00 --> 00:19:06 because I see here an equation which clearly tells me 312 00:19:04 --> 00:19:10 that we have a simple harmonic oscillation-- 313 00:19:07 --> 00:19:13 theta double dot plus a constant times theta is zero. 314 00:19:12 --> 00:19:18 And so we must get as a solution 315 00:19:15 --> 00:19:21 that theta must be some maximum angle 316 00:19:19 --> 00:19:25 times the cosine of omega t plus or minus phi. 317 00:19:24 --> 00:19:30 This omega hasnothing to do with that omega. 318 00:19:29 --> 00:19:35 This is the angular frequency. 319 00:19:35 --> 00:19:41 This is related to the period T of the oscillation, 320 00:19:38 --> 00:19:44 which is two pi divided by omega. 321 00:19:40 --> 00:19:46 This is a constant. 322 00:19:41 --> 00:19:47 This omega is not a constant. 323 00:19:44 --> 00:19:50 It is unfortunate, in physics, that we use the same symbol. 324 00:19:48 --> 00:19:54 The angular velocity is zero when the object stands still; 325 00:19:52 --> 00:19:58 is a maximum when the object is here. 326 00:19:54 --> 00:20:00 That omega is always the same. 327 00:19:56 --> 00:20:02 It's related to how long it takes to make one oscillation. 328 00:20:01 --> 00:20:07 Both are called omega, both are radians per second. 329 00:20:05 --> 00:20:11 Couldn't be more confusing. 330 00:20:09 --> 00:20:15 All right, if we find I of P 331 00:20:11 --> 00:20:17 then we can solve for the frequency, angular frequency 332 00:20:15 --> 00:20:21 and we can solve for the period. 333 00:20:17 --> 00:20:23 So let's do the... calculate the moment of inertia about point P. 334 00:20:23 --> 00:20:29 In order to do that, we have to apply the Parallel-Axis Theorem 335 00:20:28 --> 00:20:34 because you will probably be given 336 00:20:30 --> 00:20:36 the moment of inertia for rotation about the axis 337 00:20:34 --> 00:20:40 through the center of mass parallel to this axis. 338 00:20:37 --> 00:20:43 And then you will have to add 339 00:20:39 --> 00:20:45 the mass times the distance between these two axes squared 340 00:20:44 --> 00:20:50 to apply the Parallel Axis Theorem. 341 00:20:46 --> 00:20:52 So this is the moment of inertia about the center of mass 342 00:20:50 --> 00:20:56 plus m times the distance squared. 343 00:20:53 --> 00:20:59 And the distance between these two axes is one-half l, 344 00:20:57 --> 00:21:03 so this is one-quarter l squared. 345 00:21:00 --> 00:21:06 I look up in a table what the moment of inertia is 346 00:21:04 --> 00:21:10 for rotation of a rod about its center-- 347 00:21:08 --> 00:21:14 a perpendicular rod is perpendicular to the axis-- 348 00:21:11 --> 00:21:17 and that is 1/12 Ml squared plus one-quarter Ml squared 349 00:21:19 --> 00:21:25 give me one-third Ml squared. 350 00:21:24 --> 00:21:30 So I know now what I of P is, 351 00:21:27 --> 00:21:33 and so now I can solve for the value for omega-- 352 00:21:31 --> 00:21:37 the angular frequency. 353 00:21:33 --> 00:21:39 I'll do that here 354 00:21:35 --> 00:21:41 so that we keep everything on one blackboard. 355 00:21:39 --> 00:21:45 So this term here, which is omega squared... 356 00:21:44 --> 00:21:50 Omega squared equals 357 00:21:47 --> 00:21:53 one-half lMg divided by one-third Ml squared. 358 00:22:00 --> 00:22:06 I lose one l, I lose one M-- 359 00:22:03 --> 00:22:09 very common, always lose your "M"s in gravity-- 360 00:22:07 --> 00:22:13 and so this is three-halves g divided by l. 361 00:22:11 --> 00:22:17 And so the period of one oscillation 362 00:22:15 --> 00:22:21 is two pi divided by omega-- 363 00:22:18 --> 00:22:24 omega is the square root of this-- 364 00:22:22 --> 00:22:28 so that becomes the square root of two-thirds l over g. 365 00:22:27 --> 00:22:33 366 00:22:29 --> 00:22:35 And that is the period of the oscillation of this ruler. 367 00:22:33 --> 00:22:39 We worked on something similar in lectures 368 00:22:36 --> 00:22:42 and we even measured the period 369 00:22:38 --> 00:22:44 and we found very, very good agreement 370 00:22:40 --> 00:22:46 with the theoretical prediction. 371 00:22:43 --> 00:22:49 372 00:22:46 --> 00:22:52 You can ask, now, what is the kinetic energy of rotation 373 00:22:49 --> 00:22:55 of this rod, which changes with time? 374 00:22:51 --> 00:22:57 Kinetic energy of rotation is one-half I omega squared. 375 00:22:57 --> 00:23:03 Remember, the linear kinetic energy is one-half mv squared. 376 00:23:03 --> 00:23:09 The m becomes I when you go to rotation, and v becomes omega. 377 00:23:09 --> 00:23:15 So the kinetic energy of rotation 378 00:23:12 --> 00:23:18 equals one-half I omega squared-- 379 00:23:17 --> 00:23:23 you'll find this equation on your exam. 380 00:23:21 --> 00:23:27 This is I about that point P. 381 00:23:25 --> 00:23:31 You know what theta is, as a function of time. 382 00:23:29 --> 00:23:35 So omega equals d theta/dt, so you can find what omega is. 383 00:23:34 --> 00:23:40 You know what I of P is, we just calculated it. 384 00:23:38 --> 00:23:44 And so you know what the kinetic energy of rotation is 385 00:23:41 --> 00:23:47 at any moment in time. 386 00:23:43 --> 00:23:49 It will change. 387 00:23:44 --> 00:23:50 It will be zero when this comes to a halt, 388 00:23:48 --> 00:23:54 and it will be a maximum when it is here. 389 00:23:51 --> 00:23:57 390 00:23:53 --> 00:23:59 It's a continuous conversion 391 00:23:55 --> 00:24:01 from gravitational potential energy, which is a maximum here, 392 00:23:58 --> 00:24:04 to kinetic energy, which is a maximum here. 393 00:24:05 --> 00:24:11 And so this will obviously change with time-- 394 00:24:08 --> 00:24:14 the kinetic energy of rotation. 395 00:24:10 --> 00:24:16 396 00:24:12 --> 00:24:18 I thought problem 8-1 was a nice example 397 00:24:17 --> 00:24:23 of how to apply Kepler's laws, Newton's laws of gravity 398 00:24:24 --> 00:24:30 in the case that we have an elliptical orbit. 399 00:24:29 --> 00:24:35 Here we have a planet, mass M, radius R. 400 00:24:33 --> 00:24:39 It's not rotating and it has no atmosphere. 401 00:24:36 --> 00:24:42 Grant you, a little bit artificial. 402 00:24:42 --> 00:24:48 We launch a satellite 403 00:24:44 --> 00:24:50 and the satellite gets a velocity here 404 00:24:48 --> 00:24:54 which was called v zero 405 00:24:51 --> 00:24:57 as it is right here at the surface 406 00:24:54 --> 00:25:00 and this angle, 20 degrees. 407 00:24:57 --> 00:25:03 And we were told that the point farthest away 408 00:25:02 --> 00:25:08 was five planets' radii away. 409 00:25:05 --> 00:25:11 So if I try to sketch the elliptical orbit-- 410 00:25:08 --> 00:25:14 assuming that the velocity is instantaneously reached; 411 00:25:12 --> 00:25:18 that means, this point must also be a point of the orbit. 412 00:25:16 --> 00:25:22 If I try to make a sketch, 413 00:25:18 --> 00:25:24 then that elliptical orbit would look something like this. 414 00:25:24 --> 00:25:30 415 00:25:31 --> 00:25:37 Something like this. 416 00:25:33 --> 00:25:39 And then, this distance is five R. 417 00:25:36 --> 00:25:42 I call this point A. 418 00:25:40 --> 00:25:46 It's the point that is farthest away from the center. 419 00:25:43 --> 00:25:49 It's clear that the satellite will crash back onto the planet, 420 00:25:48 --> 00:25:54 but that's no concern to us. 421 00:25:50 --> 00:25:56 422 00:25:52 --> 00:25:58 When I draw this ellipse, I made the assumption 423 00:25:55 --> 00:26:01 that all the mass of the planet was inside the ellipse-- 424 00:26:00 --> 00:26:06 for instance, somewhere here. 425 00:26:02 --> 00:26:08 Now, that is not the case, 426 00:26:04 --> 00:26:10 so only this part of the ellipse is realistic 427 00:26:07 --> 00:26:13 and this part, of course, is not. 428 00:26:10 --> 00:26:16 429 00:26:12 --> 00:26:18 What you're being asked is to calculate what v zero was 430 00:26:16 --> 00:26:22 only based on the information 431 00:26:18 --> 00:26:24 of the 5R and the 20 degrees and on the mass. 432 00:26:22 --> 00:26:28 And I can add to it 433 00:26:23 --> 00:26:29 what is the velocity here at A, when it is farthest away, 434 00:26:27 --> 00:26:33 and I can even add to it 435 00:26:29 --> 00:26:35 what is the semimajor axis where this is 2a? 436 00:26:35 --> 00:26:41 All of that comes for free with that initial condition 437 00:26:40 --> 00:26:46 and the knowledge that it goes out five planets' radii. 438 00:26:44 --> 00:26:50 The angular momentum, l, equals R cross P. 439 00:26:51 --> 00:26:57 Angular momentum is conserved 440 00:26:54 --> 00:27:00 for this object in orbit-- mass m-- but only if you take 441 00:27:00 --> 00:27:06 the angular momentum relative to this point. 442 00:27:04 --> 00:27:10 I don't know what I called this point. 443 00:27:07 --> 00:27:13 It looks like I called it P. 444 00:27:09 --> 00:27:15 I can hardly read it, I'll call it C for now. 445 00:27:13 --> 00:27:19 So angular momentum of this object in this orbit 446 00:27:16 --> 00:27:22 is not conserved relative to any point, 447 00:27:18 --> 00:27:24 but it's only conserved relative to this point. 448 00:27:21 --> 00:27:27 So the angular momentum 449 00:27:24 --> 00:27:30 relative to point C at this moment in time 450 00:27:28 --> 00:27:34 is the position vector-- which is R-- times the velocity, 451 00:27:33 --> 00:27:39 but I have to multiply it by the sine of 20 degrees. 452 00:27:37 --> 00:27:43 So it is m... it is mv, right? 453 00:27:41 --> 00:27:47 so we get a v zero, here. 454 00:27:44 --> 00:27:50 We get a capital R here, and we get the sine of 20 degrees. 455 00:27:49 --> 00:27:55 R times... indeed. 456 00:27:51 --> 00:27:57 That must also be the angular momentum right here. 457 00:27:56 --> 00:28:02 The fact that the angular momentum is in the blackboard 458 00:27:59 --> 00:28:05 is no concern to me; 459 00:28:00 --> 00:28:06 I just want to know the magnitude. 460 00:28:02 --> 00:28:08 When the object is here, 461 00:28:03 --> 00:28:09 the angular momentum is the position vector 462 00:28:07 --> 00:28:13 which has length 5R. 463 00:28:08 --> 00:28:14 The velocity is v of A, 464 00:28:10 --> 00:28:16 but the angle is now 90 degrees, so the sine of the angle is one. 465 00:28:15 --> 00:28:21 So I get m times vA times five R. 466 00:28:20 --> 00:28:26 I lose my little m, and I have one equation with two unknowns. 467 00:28:24 --> 00:28:30 I don't know what v zero is and I don't know what v of A is. 468 00:28:28 --> 00:28:34 I need another equation. 469 00:28:30 --> 00:28:36 Well, these are conservative forces-- 470 00:28:32 --> 00:28:38 we're dealing with gravity-- 471 00:28:34 --> 00:28:40 so mechanical energy must be conserved 472 00:28:36 --> 00:28:42 or, what we used to say-- 473 00:28:40 --> 00:28:46 the total energy of the system is conserved. 474 00:28:43 --> 00:28:49 The total energy of the system 475 00:28:45 --> 00:28:51 is kinetic energy plus potential energy... 476 00:28:47 --> 00:28:53 must be conserved, must be the same here as it is there. 477 00:28:53 --> 00:28:59 What is the total energy here? 478 00:28:56 --> 00:29:02 The kinetic energy is one-half m v zero squared. 479 00:29:00 --> 00:29:06 What is the potential energy here? 480 00:29:03 --> 00:29:09 It is minus mMG divided by its distance to the center, 481 00:29:08 --> 00:29:14 which is capital R. 482 00:29:10 --> 00:29:16 That is the total energy right here. 483 00:29:13 --> 00:29:19 The total energy here could not have changed. 484 00:29:16 --> 00:29:22 It must therefore be one-half m vA squared 485 00:29:22 --> 00:29:28 minus mMG, but now the distance equals 5R. 486 00:29:28 --> 00:29:34 Apart from the fact that I lose my little m, 487 00:29:32 --> 00:29:38 notice I have a second equation. 488 00:29:34 --> 00:29:40 I didn't add any unknowns, 489 00:29:36 --> 00:29:42 so I have two equations with two unknowns, v zero and v of A. 490 00:29:41 --> 00:29:47 And you can solve for that, you can find both. 491 00:29:44 --> 00:29:50 Interestingly enough, you can also find the semimajor axis 492 00:29:50 --> 00:29:56 because the total energy of the system 493 00:29:54 --> 00:30:00 is also minus mMG divided by 2A. 494 00:29:57 --> 00:30:03 This equation is also on your exam. 495 00:30:01 --> 00:30:07 And so if you know v zero, or you know v A, then you can... 496 00:30:05 --> 00:30:11 The m cancels and you can also calculate the semimajor axis. 497 00:30:10 --> 00:30:16 498 00:30:12 --> 00:30:18 Okay, Doppler shift. 499 00:30:14 --> 00:30:20 Let's do something about Doppler shift. 500 00:30:18 --> 00:30:24 First, Doppler shift of electromagnetic radiation: 501 00:30:22 --> 00:30:28 light, radio waves, X rays. 502 00:30:26 --> 00:30:32 There is a star moving relative to us with a velocity v. 503 00:30:33 --> 00:30:39 Since we're dealing with electromagnetic radiation, 504 00:30:35 --> 00:30:41 we don't have to ask whether the star is moving relative to us 505 00:30:39 --> 00:30:45 or we are moving relative to the star. 506 00:30:41 --> 00:30:47 That question is a meaningless question in special relativity. 507 00:30:45 --> 00:30:51 You are here. 508 00:30:47 --> 00:30:53 You are receiving the frequency F prime, 509 00:30:50 --> 00:30:56 and here is that star 510 00:30:52 --> 00:30:58 and that star is moving with a certain velocity-- 511 00:30:56 --> 00:31:02 let's say this velocity, v, and this angle is theta. 512 00:31:03 --> 00:31:09 So this component of the velocity in our direction 513 00:31:07 --> 00:31:13 is v cosine theta. 514 00:31:08 --> 00:31:14 We call that the radial component. 515 00:31:10 --> 00:31:16 And whether the star is moving to us 516 00:31:12 --> 00:31:18 or we to the star makes no difference. 517 00:31:15 --> 00:31:21 518 00:31:16 --> 00:31:22 If the velocity of the star is much, much smaller than C, 519 00:31:21 --> 00:31:27 then F prime, the one that you will receive, 520 00:31:25 --> 00:31:31 equals F times one plus v over C times the cosine of theta. 521 00:31:30 --> 00:31:36 This equation is on your exam. 522 00:31:32 --> 00:31:38 C is three times ten to the fifth kilometers per second. 523 00:31:39 --> 00:31:45 If cosine theta is positive, the object is approaching 524 00:31:42 --> 00:31:48 and you observe a higher frequency. 525 00:31:45 --> 00:31:51 If cosine theta is negative, the object is going away. 526 00:31:48 --> 00:31:54 The radial component is away from us 527 00:31:50 --> 00:31:56 and the frequency is lower. 528 00:31:52 --> 00:31:58 In optical astronomy, we cannot measure frequencies. 529 00:31:55 --> 00:32:01 We can only measure wavelength. 530 00:31:57 --> 00:32:03 And the connection between wavelength and frequency... 531 00:32:01 --> 00:32:07 Lambda equals the speed of light divided by the frequency. 532 00:32:06 --> 00:32:12 So we can substitute in that equation 533 00:32:09 --> 00:32:15 F equals C divided by lambda 534 00:32:12 --> 00:32:18 and F prime equals C divided by lambda prime. 535 00:32:16 --> 00:32:22 When we do that and we also make use of this approximation-- 536 00:32:21 --> 00:32:27 that one divided by one plus x is approximately one minus x 537 00:32:25 --> 00:32:31 as long as x is much, much smaller than one-- 538 00:32:29 --> 00:32:35 this is the first order term in the Taylor Expansion. 539 00:32:32 --> 00:32:38 Then you can find that now lambda prime 540 00:32:35 --> 00:32:41 becomes lambda times one minus-- it becomes a minus sign; 541 00:32:39 --> 00:32:45 the plus changes to a minus sign, for that reason-- 542 00:32:42 --> 00:32:48 times v divided by C times cosine theta. 543 00:32:46 --> 00:32:52 Notice that here, you have that radial velocity. 544 00:32:50 --> 00:32:56 And you have that here. 545 00:32:54 --> 00:33:00 If lambda prime is larger than lambda, 546 00:32:57 --> 00:33:03 the object is going away from us. 547 00:33:00 --> 00:33:06 We call that "red shift." 548 00:33:03 --> 00:33:09 549 00:33:04 --> 00:33:10 If the object is receding-- 550 00:33:07 --> 00:33:13 if lambda prime is less than lambda-- 551 00:33:10 --> 00:33:16 we call that "blue shift," 552 00:33:13 --> 00:33:19 because the wavelengths become shorter in this time-- 553 00:33:16 --> 00:33:22 move towards the blue end of the spectrum. 554 00:33:18 --> 00:33:24 Here it becomes larger, shifts to the red part of the spectrum. 555 00:33:22 --> 00:33:28 The blue shift means the object is approaching you. 556 00:33:26 --> 00:33:32 During the lecture that we discussed this, 557 00:33:28 --> 00:33:34 we took an example 558 00:33:29 --> 00:33:35 where lambda prime over lambda was 1.00333. 559 00:33:35 --> 00:33:41 If you substitute that in this equation, 560 00:33:39 --> 00:33:45 you'll find that v cosine theta 561 00:33:43 --> 00:33:49 equals minus 100 kilometers per second. 562 00:33:48 --> 00:33:54 So what it means-- all you know is the radial velocity; 563 00:33:51 --> 00:33:57 you never get any information about the angle-- 564 00:33:53 --> 00:33:59 that the radial velocity is 100 kilometers per second 565 00:33:56 --> 00:34:02 away from us, 566 00:33:58 --> 00:34:04 or we are moving 100 kilometers per second away from the star. 567 00:34:02 --> 00:34:08 That's the same thing in special relativity. 568 00:34:05 --> 00:34:11 569 00:34:10 --> 00:34:16 If we apply this to sound, then we get a very similar equation. 570 00:34:17 --> 00:34:23 Suppose you sit still in 26.100 571 00:34:19 --> 00:34:25 and I move a sound source to you, but you don't move. 572 00:34:24 --> 00:34:30 Then you get the similar equation that f prime-- 573 00:34:28 --> 00:34:34 that's the frequency that you will hear-- 574 00:34:32 --> 00:34:38 equals f times one plus v over v sound times the cosine of theta, 575 00:34:38 --> 00:34:44 and the sound's speed is about 340 meters per second 576 00:34:43 --> 00:34:49 at room temperature. 577 00:34:44 --> 00:34:50 578 00:34:46 --> 00:34:52 In other words, if I twirl something around in a circle 579 00:34:50 --> 00:34:56 and you are in the plane of that circle-- you are here-- 580 00:34:55 --> 00:35:01 then when the object comes to you, 581 00:34:58 --> 00:35:04 you hear a maximum frequency-- f prime is larger than f. 582 00:35:03 --> 00:35:09 When it goes away from you, you hear a decrease in frequency-- 583 00:35:08 --> 00:35:14 smaller than f. 584 00:35:09 --> 00:35:15 And when the object is here, and when it is here-- 585 00:35:13 --> 00:35:19 when the angle is 90 degrees and the cosine theta is zero-- 586 00:35:17 --> 00:35:23 you'll find f prime equals f, f prime equals f. 587 00:35:22 --> 00:35:28 So when I twirl something around... 588 00:35:25 --> 00:35:31 let's suppose I twirl it around with an orbital velocity. 589 00:35:29 --> 00:35:35 If I call that orbital velocity of 3.4 meters per second-- 590 00:35:33 --> 00:35:39 just to get some nice numbers, then this is .01... 591 00:35:37 --> 00:35:43 And so if it comes to you, 592 00:35:38 --> 00:35:44 you hear an increase of one percent in the frequency. 593 00:35:42 --> 00:35:48 When it goes away from you, you hear a decrease of one percent. 594 00:35:46 --> 00:35:52 I have here a sound source which produces roughly 1,500 hertz. 595 00:35:54 --> 00:36:00 (machine emits high-pitched tone ) 596 00:35:57 --> 00:36:03 I could twirl it around. 597 00:35:59 --> 00:36:05 I can do it once per second around, 598 00:36:01 --> 00:36:07 which gives you even twice this speed. 599 00:36:04 --> 00:36:10 And so you would hear a two percent increase 600 00:36:06 --> 00:36:12 when it comes to you; 601 00:36:07 --> 00:36:13 two percent decrease when it goes away from you. 602 00:36:10 --> 00:36:16 (tone wavers between higher and lower pitch ) 603 00:36:13 --> 00:36:19 Can you hear the Doppler shift? 604 00:36:16 --> 00:36:22 It's always difficult in a lecture hall 605 00:36:18 --> 00:36:24 because you get reflections from the wall. 606 00:36:20 --> 00:36:26 Can you hear it, when it comes to you, that the pitch is higher 607 00:36:24 --> 00:36:30 than when it goes away from you? 608 00:36:26 --> 00:36:32 609 00:36:30 --> 00:36:36 Okay, rolling objects. 610 00:36:33 --> 00:36:39 Let's roll something down the hill. 611 00:36:38 --> 00:36:44 Classic problem. 612 00:36:41 --> 00:36:47 Very often you see that on exams. 613 00:36:45 --> 00:36:51 614 00:36:49 --> 00:36:55 We take a ball and we roll it down an incline. 615 00:36:55 --> 00:37:01 This is the incline and the angle is beta. 616 00:37:01 --> 00:37:07 Here is the ball, it's a sphere. 617 00:37:04 --> 00:37:10 It's a solid sphere, it has mass m with radius R 618 00:37:07 --> 00:37:13 and it is solid. 619 00:37:10 --> 00:37:16 This is the center of that ball. 620 00:37:13 --> 00:37:19 I call this point P. 621 00:37:17 --> 00:37:23 I put all the forces on that I can think of. 622 00:37:21 --> 00:37:27 There is mg here... 623 00:37:26 --> 00:37:32 at this point P, the normal force from the surface... 624 00:37:31 --> 00:37:37 and there is friction. 625 00:37:34 --> 00:37:40 This is the frictional force. 626 00:37:35 --> 00:37:41 The sum of Ff and the normal force 627 00:37:37 --> 00:37:43 is what we call the contact force. 628 00:37:39 --> 00:37:45 That is the force with which the incline 629 00:37:42 --> 00:37:48 pushes back onto the ball, but we normally decompose that 630 00:37:46 --> 00:37:52 in a direction along the slope and perpendicular to the slope. 631 00:37:50 --> 00:37:56 So these are the only three forces 632 00:37:52 --> 00:37:58 that this object is experiencing 633 00:37:54 --> 00:38:00 and I can ask you now what is "a"-- 634 00:37:57 --> 00:38:03 the acceleration at which it goes down the slope-- 635 00:38:00 --> 00:38:06 and I can ask you what is the frictional force. 636 00:38:05 --> 00:38:11 I will ask you that under the conditions of "pure roll." 637 00:38:11 --> 00:38:17 What does pure roll mean? 638 00:38:13 --> 00:38:19 It means that if this-- the circumference here-- 639 00:38:16 --> 00:38:22 moves one centimeter 640 00:38:17 --> 00:38:23 that the center of mass has also moved one centimeter. 641 00:38:21 --> 00:38:27 So it means that the velocity of the center-- 642 00:38:26 --> 00:38:32 so this velocity, v of c-- 643 00:38:29 --> 00:38:35 at all moments in time will be omega R. 644 00:38:34 --> 00:38:40 And omega is the angular velocity 645 00:38:36 --> 00:38:42 which is changing with time. 646 00:38:39 --> 00:38:45 That is the condition of pure roll. 647 00:38:42 --> 00:38:48 Atall moments in time 648 00:38:44 --> 00:38:50 if I have a rotating sphere or cylinder 649 00:38:48 --> 00:38:54 always will the circumferential speed be omega R. 650 00:38:52 --> 00:38:58 It could be standing still and just rotating like this, 651 00:38:56 --> 00:39:02 slipping like hell and not moving forward-- 652 00:38:58 --> 00:39:04 then the circumferential speed is always omega R. 653 00:39:02 --> 00:39:08 But if the center also moves with that same speed, 654 00:39:06 --> 00:39:12 only then do we call it pure roll. 655 00:39:08 --> 00:39:14 If you take the derivative of this, 656 00:39:11 --> 00:39:17 you get a equals omega dot times R. 657 00:39:14 --> 00:39:20 That equals alpha R, alpha being the angular acceleration. 658 00:39:20 --> 00:39:26 All right, we are going to write down now 659 00:39:23 --> 00:39:29 the torque relative to that point C. 660 00:39:26 --> 00:39:32 If I take point C, 661 00:39:27 --> 00:39:33 then I lose the force mg and I lose the force N. 662 00:39:31 --> 00:39:37 There is only one force that I have to deal with. 663 00:39:34 --> 00:39:40 For the torque, relative to point C... 664 00:39:37 --> 00:39:43 The fact that the torque is in the blackboard 665 00:39:40 --> 00:39:46 is of no concern to me. 666 00:39:42 --> 00:39:48 I just want to know the magnitude-- 667 00:39:44 --> 00:39:50 that is R times Ff, R times the frictional force. 668 00:39:48 --> 00:39:54 That must be the moment of inertia 669 00:39:51 --> 00:39:57 about that point C times alpha. 670 00:39:54 --> 00:40:00 We've seen this now twice already. 671 00:39:57 --> 00:40:03 And so, since alpha is a divided by R, 672 00:40:00 --> 00:40:06 this is I of c times a divided by R. 673 00:40:03 --> 00:40:09 This is one equation 674 00:40:05 --> 00:40:11 and I have a as an unknown and I have Ff as an unknown. 675 00:40:10 --> 00:40:16 There is not enough-- I need more. 676 00:40:14 --> 00:40:20 Newton's second law always holds-- the center of mass... 677 00:40:18 --> 00:40:24 For the center of mass, it must always hold that F equals Ma. 678 00:40:23 --> 00:40:29 So all I do now is I go to the center of mass and I say, 679 00:40:26 --> 00:40:32 What are the forces which are acting down the slope? 680 00:40:30 --> 00:40:36 I am not interested in the ones perpendicular to the slope-- 681 00:40:33 --> 00:40:39 only the ones down the slope. 682 00:40:35 --> 00:40:41 That must be Ma-- it's nonnegotiable, 683 00:40:37 --> 00:40:43 because that is the quality, characteristic 684 00:40:39 --> 00:40:45 of the center of mass. 685 00:40:41 --> 00:40:47 Well, this one is uphill 686 00:40:43 --> 00:40:49 and the only one that is downhill 687 00:40:45 --> 00:40:51 is the component of mg along the slope, which is Mg sine beta. 688 00:40:50 --> 00:40:56 I call that the plus direction, 689 00:40:54 --> 00:41:00 so I get Mg sine beta minus that frictional force 690 00:40:59 --> 00:41:05 equals M times a. 691 00:41:06 --> 00:41:12 It's my second equation. 692 00:41:07 --> 00:41:13 I have two equations with two unknowns, and I can solve. 693 00:41:12 --> 00:41:18 a is an unknown, and the frictional force is an unknown. 694 00:41:15 --> 00:41:21 You can do that as well as I can-- 695 00:41:17 --> 00:41:23 I will just give you the results. 696 00:41:19 --> 00:41:25 I don't want to waste your time on the algebra. 697 00:41:21 --> 00:41:27 a, the acceleration, under the conditions of pure roll-- 698 00:41:25 --> 00:41:31 butonly under the conditions of pure roll-- 699 00:41:28 --> 00:41:34 equals MR squared times g times the sine of beta 700 00:41:36 --> 00:41:42 divided by MR squared 701 00:41:38 --> 00:41:44 plus the moment of inertia about that point C. 702 00:41:44 --> 00:41:50 And the frictional force-- 703 00:41:48 --> 00:41:54 you can see that from this equation-- 704 00:41:50 --> 00:41:56 is the moment of inertia times a divided by R squared. 705 00:41:53 --> 00:41:59 And I will leave "a" as it is 706 00:41:56 --> 00:42:02 because it becomes too complicated otherwise. 707 00:41:59 --> 00:42:05 And so the frictional force becomes 708 00:42:02 --> 00:42:08 the moment of inertia about C times a divided by R squared. 709 00:42:06 --> 00:42:12 So this a has to be substituted in here. 710 00:42:11 --> 00:42:17 The acceleration is independent of the mass 711 00:42:13 --> 00:42:19 and independent of the radius-- very nonintuitive. 712 00:42:16 --> 00:42:22 It doesn't matter 713 00:42:18 --> 00:42:24 whether you take a ball this big or this big. 714 00:42:20 --> 00:42:26 It doesn't matter what the mass is. 715 00:42:22 --> 00:42:28 The reason for that is that, as you will see shortly, 716 00:42:25 --> 00:42:31 that the moment of inertia 717 00:42:26 --> 00:42:32 also contains the term MR squared, 718 00:42:28 --> 00:42:34 and so all the MR squares will disappear. 719 00:42:30 --> 00:42:36 720 00:42:32 --> 00:42:38 Let's first take a look at beta related to a. 721 00:42:36 --> 00:42:42 Notice when beta equals zero, that a equals zero. 722 00:42:41 --> 00:42:47 Itbetter be. 723 00:42:42 --> 00:42:48 If there is no slope, there cannot be any acceleration. 724 00:42:46 --> 00:42:52 Notice if a equals zero 725 00:42:47 --> 00:42:53 that the frictional force is also zero. 726 00:42:50 --> 00:42:56 It better be. 727 00:42:51 --> 00:42:57 So that is an easy check that you can do-- 728 00:42:54 --> 00:43:00 internal consistency check. 729 00:42:55 --> 00:43:01 So now let's look at I of C. 730 00:42:58 --> 00:43:04 What is I of C? 731 00:42:59 --> 00:43:05 I look it up in the table. 732 00:43:02 --> 00:43:08 A ball, sphere rotating about an axis through the center of mass. 733 00:43:07 --> 00:43:13 It's one of the few that I happen to remember-- 734 00:43:10 --> 00:43:16 is two-fifths MR squared. 735 00:43:12 --> 00:43:18 If I substitute that in here, I'll find that the acceleration 736 00:43:17 --> 00:43:23 under the conditions of pure roll 737 00:43:20 --> 00:43:26 is five-sevenths g times the sine of beta. 738 00:43:27 --> 00:43:33 And I find that the frictional force, F of f, 739 00:43:32 --> 00:43:38 equals two-sevenths, I believe, times Mg sine beta. 740 00:43:38 --> 00:43:44 Indeed. 741 00:43:40 --> 00:43:46 742 00:43:42 --> 00:43:48 These are the results 743 00:43:44 --> 00:43:50 by substituting the moment of inertia in there. 744 00:43:47 --> 00:43:53 745 00:43:49 --> 00:43:55 Let's look at these results a little closer. 746 00:43:53 --> 00:43:59 If there were no friction, then we know 747 00:43:56 --> 00:44:02 that the acceleration would have been g sine beta. 748 00:44:00 --> 00:44:06 We remember that-- 749 00:44:02 --> 00:44:08 a sliding object with no friction would be g sine beta. 750 00:44:05 --> 00:44:11 Why is it now lower? 751 00:44:08 --> 00:44:14 Five-sevenths is lower than one. 752 00:44:10 --> 00:44:16 It's obvious. 753 00:44:11 --> 00:44:17 Because when this object comes rolling down, 754 00:44:14 --> 00:44:20 the kinetic energy, the total kinetic energy 755 00:44:17 --> 00:44:23 is kinetic energy of rotation 756 00:44:19 --> 00:44:25 plus the linear portion of the kinetic energy-- 757 00:44:22 --> 00:44:28 the forward motion due to this one-half Mv squared. 758 00:44:25 --> 00:44:31 When you have a sliding object, 759 00:44:27 --> 00:44:33 there is only the linear component. 760 00:44:30 --> 00:44:36 There is no rotational kinetic energy. 761 00:44:32 --> 00:44:38 So now the linear kinetic energy must be lower 762 00:44:36 --> 00:44:42 because some gravitational potential energy 763 00:44:39 --> 00:44:45 goes into rotational kinetic energy. 764 00:44:42 --> 00:44:48 And so it must go slower 765 00:44:43 --> 00:44:49 and so the acceleration must be less. 766 00:44:45 --> 00:44:51 It's completely intuitive that it is less than g sine beta. 767 00:44:50 --> 00:44:56 768 00:44:52 --> 00:44:58 Let's look at the frictional force. 769 00:44:54 --> 00:45:00 This is a situation of pure roll. 770 00:44:57 --> 00:45:03 We know that the frictional force 771 00:44:59 --> 00:45:05 can never exceed the maximum value possible. 772 00:45:03 --> 00:45:09 That is a no-no. 773 00:45:04 --> 00:45:10 If the frictional force becomes the maximum one, 774 00:45:07 --> 00:45:13 it would start to slip. 775 00:45:08 --> 00:45:14 It would no longer be pure roll. 776 00:45:11 --> 00:45:17 In other words, there is a necessary condition 777 00:45:15 --> 00:45:21 that the frictional force, which is two-sevenths Mg sine beta, 778 00:45:22 --> 00:45:28 must be less than the maximum frictional force. 779 00:45:27 --> 00:45:33 But the maximum frictional force is mu s-- 780 00:45:31 --> 00:45:37 static friction coefficient times this value N-- 781 00:45:36 --> 00:45:42 and this value N is mg cosine theta... beta. 782 00:45:42 --> 00:45:48 And so this is mu s times Mg cosine beta. 783 00:45:49 --> 00:45:55 I lose my Mg-- no surprise-- and so a necessary condition 784 00:45:54 --> 00:46:00 is that the static friction coefficient must be larger 785 00:45:58 --> 00:46:04 than two-sevenths times the tangent of alpha 786 00:46:02 --> 00:46:08 in order to have pure roll. 787 00:46:10 --> 00:46:16 Not alpha-- I don't know what is wrong with me-- beta. 788 00:46:13 --> 00:46:19 And this, of course, is pleasing in a way, 789 00:46:15 --> 00:46:21 because what this is telling you-- 790 00:46:17 --> 00:46:23 and we all know that by our instinct, 791 00:46:19 --> 00:46:25 you feel it in your stomach-- 792 00:46:20 --> 00:46:26 that if you make the angle too large, if you tilt that, 793 00:46:24 --> 00:46:30 there's no way that you're going to get pure roll. 794 00:46:27 --> 00:46:33 It will start rolling, of course, 795 00:46:29 --> 00:46:35 but it also starts slipping. 796 00:46:30 --> 00:46:36 For instance, if you freeze the friction coefficient 797 00:46:34 --> 00:46:40 and you say the friction coefficient is 0.2, 798 00:46:37 --> 00:46:43 then it means that beta-- the angle beta-- 799 00:46:39 --> 00:46:45 must be less than 35 degrees. 800 00:46:41 --> 00:46:47 That's just an example. 801 00:46:43 --> 00:46:49 Well, that's intuitively pleasing. 802 00:46:46 --> 00:46:52 Remember that during one of the lectures 803 00:46:50 --> 00:46:56 we calculated the period of oscillation 804 00:46:54 --> 00:47:00 of an object that was sliding on an air track without friction. 805 00:47:00 --> 00:47:06 And it was a curve of a circle with a huge radius. 806 00:47:07 --> 00:47:13 It was hundreds of meters. 807 00:47:08 --> 00:47:14 And we had a sliding object here 808 00:47:11 --> 00:47:17 and it was sliding without friction. 809 00:47:13 --> 00:47:19 And we derived that the period 810 00:47:16 --> 00:47:22 was two pi times the square root of R divided by g, 811 00:47:20 --> 00:47:26 as if this were a pendulum with length R, 812 00:47:23 --> 00:47:29 and that's in fact what it is. 813 00:47:26 --> 00:47:32 We did that with the air track 814 00:47:29 --> 00:47:35 and the results were fantastically in agreement 815 00:47:32 --> 00:47:38 with our prediction, unbelievable accuracy. 816 00:47:35 --> 00:47:41 And then we did it with a smaller radius-- 817 00:47:39 --> 00:47:45 with a ball, a rolling ball, this one. 818 00:47:43 --> 00:47:49 The radius of that curvature was 85 centimeters, 819 00:47:48 --> 00:47:54 and we predicted a period of 1.85 seconds-- this equation. 820 00:47:56 --> 00:48:02 And we measured it, and what did we find? 821 00:47:59 --> 00:48:05 Way higher. 822 00:48:01 --> 00:48:07 We observed something like, I think, 2.3 seconds. 823 00:48:05 --> 00:48:11 And I asked you at the end of the lecture, why? 824 00:48:09 --> 00:48:15 And some of you said, "Well, the radius is smaller." 825 00:48:12 --> 00:48:18 That was no reason, because the angle-- 826 00:48:14 --> 00:48:20 the displacement angle-- was still very small. 827 00:48:17 --> 00:48:23 This maximum angle, theta maximum, was so small 828 00:48:21 --> 00:48:27 that that could never explain 829 00:48:23 --> 00:48:29 why the period was so much larger. 830 00:48:25 --> 00:48:31 But now you know, because when this object rolls down, 831 00:48:29 --> 00:48:35 the kinetic energy is partially in the linear term 832 00:48:34 --> 00:48:40 and partially in rotation-- 833 00:48:36 --> 00:48:42 partially in the linear term and partially in rotation. 834 00:48:39 --> 00:48:45 If it is sliding, it is all in the linear term, 835 00:48:43 --> 00:48:49 so it clearly goes faster. 836 00:48:44 --> 00:48:50 Now it has to share with the rotation. 837 00:48:47 --> 00:48:53 And so that's the reason why we found the higher period. 838 00:48:50 --> 00:48:56 And that's precisely the situation that you have here. 839 00:48:54 --> 00:49:00 840 00:48:57 --> 00:49:03 I want to repeat 841 00:48:58 --> 00:49:04 that this is what you have on your plate on Monday. 842 00:49:01 --> 00:49:07 There is no way that I can cover all of that during one exam. 843 00:49:05 --> 00:49:11 Please hold it-- we have one minute left. 844 00:49:07 --> 00:49:13 There's no way I can cover all of that during one exam. 845 00:49:11 --> 00:49:17 I'll have to make a choice. 846 00:49:13 --> 00:49:19 I will pick only a few. 847 00:49:14 --> 00:49:20 Neither could I cover today, at any depth, all these topics. 848 00:49:18 --> 00:49:24 The ones that I did not cover doesn't mean at all 849 00:49:22 --> 00:49:28 that you will not see them on the exam. 850 00:49:24 --> 00:49:30 There is a special tutoring schedule this weekend 851 00:49:27 --> 00:49:33 that you can make use of 852 00:49:28 --> 00:49:34 and I believe that this lecture 853 00:49:30 --> 00:49:36 will be on PIVoT tomorrow morning. 854 00:49:32 --> 00:49:38 I wish you luck and I'll see you Monday. 855 00:49:35 --> 00:49:41 856 00:49:43 --> 00:49:49
