Learning Goal: To learn the definition andapplications of angular momentum including its relationship totorque.
By now, you should be familiar with the concept ofmomentum, defined as the product of an object's mass andits velocity:
.
You may have noticed that nearly every translationalconcept or equation seems to have an analogous rotationalone. So, what might be the rotational analogue of momentum?
Just as the rotational analogue of force , called thetorque , isdefined by the formula
,
the rotational analogue of momentum , called theangular momentum , is givenby the formula
,
for a single particle. For an extended body you must add up theangular momenta of all of the pieces.
There is another formula for angular momentum that makes theanalogy to momentum particularly clear. For a rigid body rotatingabout an axis of symmetry, which will be true for all parts in thisproblem, the measure of inertia is given not by the mass but by therotational inertia (i.e., the moment of inertia). Similarly, therate of rotation is given by the body's angular speed,. Theproduct gives the angular momentum of a rigidbody rotating about an axis of symmetry. (Note that if the body isnot rotating about an axis of symmetry, then the angular momentumand the angular velocity may not be parallel.)
