Yu, Lecture #159Angular Momentum of a ParticleIf you grab onto a pole while running, your body will rotate about the pole, gaining angular momentum. We’ve used linear momentum to solve physical problems with linear motions, angular momentum will do the same for rotational motions.sinmvrL xyzOpL=rxprmLet’s consider a point-like object ( particle) with mass m located at the vector location r and moving with linear velocity vprL The instantaneous angular momentum L of this particle relative to origin O is What do you learn from this?If the direction of linear velocity points to the origin of rotation, the particle does not have any angular momentum.What is the unit and dimension of angular momentum? 22/ smkg Note that L depends on origin O. Why? Because r changesThe direction of L is +zWhat else do you learn? Since p is mv, the magnitude of L becomesIf the linear velocity is perpendicular to position vector, the particle moves exactly the same way as a point on a rim.The point O has to be inertial.Mar. 27, 2002 1443-501 Spring 2002Dr. J. Yu, Lecture #1510Angular Momentum and TorqueTotal external forces exerting on a particle is the same as the change of its linear momentum.Can you remember how net force exerting on a particle and the change of its linear momentum are related?dtpdrFr Thus the torque-angular momentum relationshipThe same analogy works in rotational
