Newton’s Laws (angular analogs)
The resistance of an object to a change in motion
inertia
quantified as mass
linear inertia
The property of an object that resists changes in angular motion
- quantified as the object’s moment of inertia
angular inertia
Ia = ZMiri^2
Units: Kg * m^2
moment of inertia
Affected by:
- mass
- how the mass is distributed relative to the axis of rotation
moment of inertia
Humans _ their moments of inertia
manipulate
When mass is distributed closer to the axis of rotation the moment of inertia is _
smaller
Centric forces tend to result in _
linear motion
Eccentric (off-centered) forces have a tendency to cause _ and _ forces
linear and rotational
- quantification of the rotational effect of an eccentric force
- depends on:
- T = (F x d)
- Unit: Nm
- Amount of force
- Length of moment arm
Torque (moment of force, moment)
