2 Introduction In this chapter and in Chapters 7 and 8, we will be concerned with the kinetics of rigid bodies, i.e., relations between the forces acting on a rigid body, the shape and mass of the body, and the motion produced. Results of this chapter will be restricted to: - plane motion of rigid bodies, and - rigid bodies consisting of plane slabs or bodies which are symmetrical with respect to the reference plane. Our approach will be to consider rigid bodies as made of large numbers of particles and to use the results of Chapter 4 for the motion of systems of particles. Specifically, r r r &r F ma and M G H G D Alembert s principle is applied to prove that the external forces acting on a rigid body are equivalent a vector ma ṛ attached to the mass center and a couple of moment Iα 6-3 Equations of Motion for a Rigid ody Consider a rigid body acted upon by several external forces. Assume that the body is made of a large number of particles. For the motion of the mass center G of the body with respect to the Newtonian frame Oxyz, r F r ma For the motion of the body with respect to the centroidal frame Gx y z, r M G H &r G System of external forces is equipollent to the r system consisting of ma and H &r. G 6-4

3 Angular Momentum of a Rigid ody in Plane Motion Angular momentum of the slab may be computed by r n r H ( r v Δm ) G i i i n r [ ri ( ω ri ) Δmi ] i r ω ( ri Δmi ) r Iω After differentiation, r H &r G I &r ω Iα i Consider a rigid slab in plane motion. Results are also valid for plane motion of bodies which are symmetrical with respect to the reference plane. Results are not valid for asymmetrical bodies or three-dimensional motion. 6-5 Plane Motion of a Rigid ody: D Alembert s Principle Motion of a rigid body in plane motion is completely defined by the resultant and moment resultant about G of the external forces. F ma F ma M Iα x x y y G The external forces and the collective ective forces of the slab particles are equipollent (reduce to the same resultant and moment resultant) and equivalent (have the same ect on the body). d Alembert s Principle: The external forces acting on a rigid body are equivalent to the ective forces of the various particles forming the body. The most general motion of a rigid body that is symmetrical with respect to the reference plane can be replaced by the sum of a translation and a centroidal rotation

4 Axioms of the Mechanics of Rigid odies r r The forces F and F act at different points on a rigid body but but have the same magnitude, direction, and line of action. The forces produce the same moment about any point and are therefore, equipollent external forces. This proves the principle of transmissibility whereas it was previously stated as an axiom. 6-7 Problems Involving the Motion of a Rigid ody The fundamental relation between the forces acting on a rigid body in plane motion and the acceleration of its mass center and the angular acceleration of the body is illustrated in a free-body-diagram equation. The techniques for solving problems of static equilibrium may be applied to solve problems of plane motion by utilizing - d Alembert s principle, or - principle of dynamic equilibrium These techniques may also be applied to problems involving plane motion of connected rigid bodies by drawing a freebody-diagram equation for each body and solving the corresponding equations of motion simultaneously

5 Sample Problem 6. Calculate the acceleration during the skidding stop by assuming uniform acceleration. At a forward speed of 30 ft/s, the truck brakes were applied, causing the wheels to stop rotating. It was observed that the truck to skidded to a stop in 0 ft. Determine the magnitude of the normal reaction and the friction force at each wheel as the truck skidded to a stop. Draw the free-body-diagram equation expressing the equivalence of the external and ective forces. Apply the three corresponding scalar equations to solve for the unknown normal wheel forces at the front and rear and the coicient of friction between the wheels and road surface. 6-9 Sample Problem 6. ft v 30 x s 0 0ft Calculate the acceleration during the skidding stop by assuming uniform acceleration. v v 0 + a ft 0 30 s ( x x ) + a 0 ( 0ft) ft a.5 s Draw a free-body-diagram equation expressing the equivalence of the external and ective forces.

Constrained plane motion: motions with definite relations between the components of acceleration of the mass center and the angular acceleration of the body. Solution of a problem involving constrained plane motion begins with a kinematic analysis. e.g., given θ, ω, and α, find P, N A, and N. - kinematic analysis yields a x and a y. - application of d Alembert s principle yields P, N A, and N. 6-4
