angular motion

Question 1

angular motion

what is this

Answer 1

rotation around an axis and a fixed point

Question 2

what axis can a body rotate

Answer 2

saggital = side to side = cartwheel

transverse = side to side = front flip

longitudinal = head to toe = spin

Question 3

whats an eccentric force

Answer 3

• force applied outside centre of mass

Question 4

angular motion applied to newtons laws

1st law

Answer 4

• a rotating body will continue to rotate with constant angular motion unless an unbalanced force is excerted

Question 5

angular motion applied to newtons laws

2nd law

Answer 5

• the rate of chnage or angular motion of a body is proportional to the force causing it and the direction of the force applied will govern the direction of rotation

Question 6

angular motion applied to newtons laws

3rd law

Answer 6

• when a force is applied by one body to another, the second body will apply an equal but opposite force of the other body
