• Work done by force F on
an object as it rotates
through an infinitesimal
distance ds = rdθ
dW = Fds = (Fsinφ)rdθ
dW = τdθ
• The radial component of F
does no work because it is
perpendicular to the
displacement.
Power
• The rate at which work is being done in a
time interval Δt is
• This is analogous to P = Fv for translations.
Work-Kinetic Energy Theorem
• The work-kinetic energy theorem in rotational
language states that the net work done by external
forces in rotating a symmetrical rigid object
about a fixed axis equals the change in the
object’s rotational kinetic energy

Sect. 10.9 Rolling Objects
• The curve shows the path moved by a point on the rim of the
object. This path is called a cycloid
• The line shows the path of the center of mass of the object
• In pure rolling motion, an object rolls without slipping
• In such a case, there is a simple relationship between
its rotational and translational motions
Rolling Object
The velocity of the
center of mass is
The acceleration of the
center of mass is
• A point on the rim, P, rotates
to various positions such as
Q and P. At any instant, a
point P on the rim is at rest
relative to the surface since
no slipping occurs
• Rolling motion is thus a combination of pure
translational motion and pure rotational motion
Total Kinetic Energy
• The total kinetic energy of a rolling object is the sum of
the translational energy of its center of mass and the
rotational kinetic energy about its center of mass
K = (½)Mv2 + (½)Iω2
• Accelerated rolling motion is
possible only if friction is
present between the sphere
and the incline
Example:
Sphere rolls down incline
(no slipping or sliding). v = 0
KE+PE conservation: ω = 0
(½)Mv2 + (½)Iω2 +MgH
= constant, or
(KE)1 +(PE)1 =
(KE)2 + (PE)2
where KE has 2 parts:
(KE)trans = (½)Mv2
(KE)rot = (½)Iω2
v=?
y=0
