1 EQUATIONS OF MOTION: GENERAL PLANE MOTION (Section 17.5) Today s Objectives: Students will be able to analyze the planar kinetics of a rigid body undergoing general plane motion.

APPLICATIONS As the soil compactor accelerates

2 APPLICATIONS As the soil compactor accelerates forward, the front roller experiences general plane motion (both translation and rotation). What are the loads experienced by the roller shaft or bearings? = The forces shown on the roller s FBD cause the accelerations shown on the kinetic diagram.

3 APPLICATIONS (continued) During an impact, the center of gravity of this crash dummy will decelerate with the vehicle, but also experience another acceleration due to its rotation about point A. How can engineers use this information to determine the forces exerted by the seat belt on a passenger during a crash?

4 EQUATIONS OF MOTION: GENERAL PLANE MOTION When a rigid body is subjected to external forces and couple-moments, it can undergo both translational motion as well as rotational motion. This combination is called general plane motion. Using an x-y inertial coordinate system, the equations of motions about the center of mass, G, may be written as F x = m (a G ) x P F y = m (a G ) y M G = I G α

5 EQUATIONS OF MOTION: GENERAL PLANE MOTION (continued) Sometimes, it may be convenient to write the moment equation about some point P other than G. Then the equations of motion are written as follows. F x = m (a G ) x F y = m (a G ) y M P = (M k ) P P In this case, (M k ) P represents the sum of the moments of I G α and ma G about point P.

FRICTIONAL ROLLING PROBLEMS When analyzing the rolling motion of wheels, cylinders, or disks, it may not be known if the body rolls without slipping or if it slides as it rolls.

6 FRICTIONAL ROLLING PROBLEMS When analyzing the rolling motion of wheels, cylinders, or disks, it may not be known if the body rolls without slipping or if it slides as it rolls. For example, consider a disk with mass m and radius r, subjected to a known force P. The equations of motion will be F x = m(a G ) x => P - F = ma G F y = m(a G ) y => N - mg = 0 M G = I G α => F r = I G α There are 4 unknowns (F, N, α, and a G )in these three equations.

7 FRICTIONAL ROLLING PROBLEMS (continued) Hence, we have to make an assumption to provide another equation. Then we can solve for the unknowns. The 4 th equation can be obtained from the slip or non-slip condition of the disk. Case 1: Assume no slipping and use a G = α r as the 4 th equation and DO NOT use F f = µ s N. After solving, you will need to verify that the assumption was correct by checking if F f µ s N. Case 2: Assume slipping and use F f = µ k Nas the 4 th equation. In this case, a G αr.

8 PROCEDURE FOR ANALYSIS Problems involving the kinetics of a rigid body undergoing general plane motion can be solved using the following procedure. 1. Establish the x-y inertial coordinate system. Draw both the free body diagram and kinetic diagram for the body. 2. Specify the direction and sense of the acceleration of the mass center, a G, and the angular acceleration α of the body. If necessary, compute the body s mass moment of inertia I G. 3. If the moment equation ΣM p = Σ(M k ) p is used, use the kinetic diagram to help visualize the moments developed by the components m(a G ) x, m(a G ) y, and I G α. 4. Apply the three equations of motion.

9 PROCEDURE FOR ANALYSIS (continued) 5. Identify the unknowns. If necessary (i.e., there are four unknowns), make your slip-no slip assumption (typically no slipping, or the use of a G =αr, is assumed first). 6. Use kinematic equations as necessary to complete the solution. 7. If a slip-no slip assumption was made, check its validity!!! Key points to consider: 1. Be consistent in assumed directions. The direction of a G must be consistent with α. 2. If F f = µ k N is used, F f must oppose the motion. As a test, assume no friction and observe the resulting motion. This may help visualize the correct direction of F f.

10 EXAMPLE Given: A spool has a mass of 8 kg and a radius of gyration (k G ) of 0.35 m. Cords of negligible mass are wrapped around its inner hub and outer rim. There is no slipping. Find: The angular acceleration (α) of the spool. Plan: Focus on the spool. Follow the solution procedure (draw a FBD, etc.) and identify the unknowns.

11 Solution: FBD EXAMPLE (continued) The moment of inertia of the spool is I G = m (k G ) 2 = 8 (0.35) 2 = kg m 2 Method I Equations of motion: F y = m (a G ) y T = 8 a G M G = I G α 100 (0.2) T(0.5) = 0.98 α There are three unknowns, T, a G, α. We need one more equation to solve for 3 unknowns. Since the spool rolls on the cord at point A without slipping, a G = αr. So the third equation is: a G = 0.5α Solving these three equations, we find: α =10.3 rad/s 2, a G = 5.16 m/s 2, T = 19.8 N

EXAMPLE (continued) FBD Method II Now, instead of using a moment equation about G, a moment equation about A will be used. This approach will eliminate the unknown cord tension (T).

12 EXAMPLE (continued) FBD Method II Now, instead of using a moment equation about G, a moment equation about A will be used. This approach will eliminate the unknown cord tension (T). Σ M A = Σ (M k ) A : 100 (0.7) (0.5) = 0.98 α + (8 a G )(0.5) Using the non-slipping condition again yields a G = 0.5α. Solving these two equations, we get α = 10.3 rad/s 2, a G = 5.16 m/s 2

13 CONCEPT QUIZ 1. An 80 kg spool (k G = 0.3 m) is on a rough surface and a cable exerts a 30 N load to the right. The friction force at A acts to the and the a G should be directed to the. A) right, left B) left, right C) right, right D) left, left 0.75m α 0.2m G A 30N 2. For the situation above, the moment equation about G is: A) 0.75 (F fa ) - 0.2(30) = - (80)(0.3 2 )α B) -0.2(30) = - (80)(0.3 2 )α C) 0.75 (F fa ) - 0.2(30) = - (80)(0.3 2 )α + 80a G D) None of the above.

14 GROUP PROBLEM SOLVING Given:A 50 lb wheel has a radius of gyration k G = 0.7 ft. Find: The acceleration of the mass center if M = 35 lb-ft is applied. µ s = 0.3, µ k = Plan: Follow the problem solving procedure. Solution: The moment of inertia of the wheel about G is I G = m(k G ) 2 = (50/32.2)(0.7) 2 = slug ft 2

15 FBD: GROUP PROBLEM SOLVING (continued) Equations of motion: F x = m(a G ) x F A = (50/32.2) a G F y = m(a G ) y N A 50 = 0 M G = I G α F A = α We have 4 unknowns: N A, F A, a G and α. Another equation is needed before solving for the unknowns.

16 GROUP PROBLEM SOLVING (continued) The three equations we have now are: F A = (50/32.2) a G N A - 50 = 0 35 (1.25)F A = α First, assume the wheel is not slipping. Thus, we can write a G = r α = 1.25 α Now solving the four equations yields: N A = 50.0 lb, F A = 21.3 lb, α = 11.0 rad/s 2, a G = 13.7 ft/s 2 The no-slip assumption must be checked. Is F A = 21.3 lb µ s N A = 15 lb? No! Therefore, the wheel slips as it rolls.

GROUP PROBLEM SOLVING (continued) Therefore, a G = 1.25α is not a correct assumption. The slip condition must be used. Again, the three equations of motion are: F A = (50/32.2) a G N A 50 = 0 35 (1.

17 GROUP PROBLEM SOLVING (continued) Therefore, a G = 1.25α is not a correct assumption. The slip condition must be used. Again, the three equations of motion are: F A = (50/32.2) a G N A 50 = 0 35 (1.25)F A = α Since the wheel is slipping, the fourth equation is F A = µ k N A = 0.25 N A Solving for the unknowns yields: N A = 50.0 lb F A = 0.25 N A = 12.5 lb α = 25.5 rad/s 2 a G = 8.05 ft/s 2
