Resistance to Angular Acceleration
What is moment of inertia?
• the inertial property for rotating bodies
• represents resistance to angular
acceleration
• based on both mass and the distance
the mass is distributed from the
axis of rotation

Moment of inertia is the sum of the
products of each particle’s mass (m)
and the radius of rotation (r) for that
particle squared. I = mr2

Resistance to Angular Acceleration
What is the radius of gyration?
• distance from the axis of rotation to a
point where the body’s mass could
be concentrated without altering its
rotational characteristics
• used as the index for mass distribution
for calculating moment of inertia:
I = mk2

Knee angle affects the moment of inertia of the
swinging leg with respect to the hip because of
changes in the radius of gyration for the lower leg
(k2) and foot (k3).

Resistance to Angular Acceleration
The ratio of muscular strength (ability to produce torque at a
joint) to segmental moments of inertia (resistance to rotation
at a joint) is important for performance in gymnastic events.

Angular Momentum
What is angular momentum?
• quantity of angular motion possessed
by a body
• measured as the product of moment of
inertia and angular velocity:
H = I
H = mk2

Angular momentum is the sum of the local
term (Iss) and the remote term (mr2g).
H = Iss + mr2g

Angular Momentum
What is the principle of conservation of
angular momentum?
The total angular momentum of a given
system remains constant in the
absence of external torques.
H 1 = H2
(mk2)1 = (mk2)2
Basic Biomechanics, 6th edition
By Susan J. Hall, Ph.D.
14-9
Angular Momentum
When angular momentum is conserved, there is a
tradeoff between moment of inertia and angular
velocity.
(Tuck position = small I, large )
(Extended position = large I, small )

Angular Momentum
What produces change in angular
momentum?
angular impulse - the product of torque
and the time interval over which the
torque acts:
T t = H
T t = (I)2 - (I)1

Springboard reaction force (F) multiplied by its moment arm
from the diver’s CG (d ) creates a torque that generates the
angular impulse that produces angular momentum at takeoff.

Angular Analogues of Newton’s Laws
What is the angular law of inertia?
A rotating body will maintain a state of
rest or constant rotational motion
unless acted on by an external
torque that changes the state.

Angular Analogues of Newton’s Laws
What is the angular law of acceleration?
A net torque causes angular acceleration
of a body that is:
• of a magnitude proportional to the
torque
• in the direction of the torque
• and inversely proportional to the
body’s moment of inertia

Angular Analogues of Newton’s Laws
What is the angular law of acceleration?
T = I
T = mk2

Angular Analogues of Newton’s Laws
What is the angular law of reaction?
• For every angular action, there is an
equal and opposite angular reaction.
• When one body exerts a torque on a
second, the second body exerts a
reaction torque that is equal in
magnitude and opposite in direction
on the first body.

the center of rotation
for a body in rotational
motion)
