Objectives: After completing this
module, you should be able to:
• Define and calculate the moment of inertia for
simple systems.
• Define and apply the concepts of Newton’s
second law, rotational kinetic energy, rotational
work, rotational power, and rotational
momentum to the solution of physical problems.
• Apply principles of conservation of energy and
momentum to problems involving rotation of
rigid bodies.
Inertia of Rotation
Consider Newton’s second law for the inertia of
rotation to be patterned after the law for translation.

First consider a disk sliding
without friction. The velocity of
any part is equal to velocity vcm
of the center of mass.

Now consider a ball rolling without
slipping. The angular velocity w
about the point P is same as w for
disk, so that we write:

Strategy for Problems
• Draw and label a sketch of the problem.
• List givens and state what is to be found.
• Write formulas for finding the moments of
inertia for each body that is in rotation.
• Recall concepts involved (power, energy,
work, conservation, etc.) and write an
equation involving the unknown quantity.
• Solve for the unknown quantity.

disk, each of the same mass and radius,
roll at a linear speed v. Compare the

Angular Momentum Defined
Consider a particle m
moving with velocity v
in a circle of radius r.
Define angular momentum L:
L = mvr
Substituting v= wr, gives:
L = m(wr) r = mr2w

L = (Smr2) w

Since I = Smr2, we have:

midpoint at a speed of 300 rpm.

Impulse and Momentum
Recall for linear motion the linear impulse is equal to
the change in linear momentum:
F Dt  mv f  mv0
Using angular analogies, we find angular impulse to
be equal to the change in angular momentum:
t Dt  Iw f  Iw 0
Example 9: A sharp force of 200 N is applied to
the edge of a wheel free to rotate. The force acts
for 0.002 s. What is the final angular velocity?
