Transcript of Angular Kinematics Objectives
Angular Kinematics Objectives• Distinguish angular motion from rectilinear and curvilinear motion• Explain how segment and joint angles are measured Discuss the
relationship among angular displacement, angular velocity, and angular acceleration
• Correctly associate angular kinematic quantities with their units of measure
• Explain the relationship between angular and linear displacement, angular and linear velocity, and angular and linear acceleration
• Solve quantitative problems involving angular kinematic quantities and the relationship between angular and linear motion quantities
Angular Kinematics Outline• Reading assignment: Chapter 11• Measuring angles
– Relative vs absolute angles– Measuring angles
• Goniometer• Inclinometer• Electrogoniometer• Analytic calculation from 3 points in space
– Angular displacement– Units of measurement
• Relationship between linear and angular motion• Linear and angular acceleration• Self-study problems: Introductory problems, pp 376-377: 4,5,7,10• Homework problems (due Monday, Nov 7): • Additional problems, p 377-378: 1,10

Calculating linearVelocity whenAngular velocity & rotation radiusAre known
Tangential and radial acceleration
Tangential acceleration represents change in magnitude of velocity
Radial acceleration represents change in direction
