System of Particles
Question | Answer |
---|---|
In pure translation motion all the particles of the object have the same ______ at any instant of time and therefore the object can be considered a _________ | velocity point object |
Why cant we consider a wheel as a single particle? | different parts of the wheel in motion have different velocities and acceleration |
What is a rigid body? | a body with definite and unchanging shape |
In a rolling motion, what is the velocity of the point of object that is in contact with the surface ? | zero |
What is rolling without slipping? | is a combination of translation and rotation where the point of contact is instantaneously at rest. |
What happens when an object experiences pure rotational motion about its center of mass? | all of its points move at right angles to the radius in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation with a speed proportional to the distance from the axis of rotation… |

In rotation of a rigid body about a fixed axis, every particle of the body moves in a ______ , which lies in a plane _______ to the axis and has its centre on the ______ | circle perpendicular axis |
examples of rotation about fixed axis | ceiling fan and potters wheel |
what is precession? example is the axis fixed? | is a change in the orientation of the rotational axis of a rotating body, i.e movement of the axis about the vertical example : spinning top may not be |
What happens when an object experiences pure rotational motion about its center of mass? | all of its points move at right angles to the radius in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation with a speed proportional to the distance from the axis of rotation |
motion of a rigid body which is not pivoted or fixed in some way is either ________ or a combination of ________- | pure translational translational + rotational (rolling motion) |
The motion of a rigid body which is pivoted or fixed in some way is _________ and it may be about a axis that is fixed or may not be | rotation |
