... stable or unstable in a gravitational field. The stability is determined using the center of gravity (the point at which all the weight of an object may be considered to be acting). For PC141, we will assume that the center of gravity coincides with the center of mass, which we know how to calculate ...

... Planar Kinematics of a Rigid Body Rigid Body Motion The purpose of this section is to determine the planar kinematics of a rigid body. This material will be useful when analysing the motion of gears, cams and planar mechanisms (e.g. the crank-slider in an engine). Following determination of the moti ...
