Angular motion topics 1 Angular motion - multiple choice To increase the moment of inertia of a body about an axis, you must (a) increase the angular acceleration. (b) increase the angular velocity. (c) decrease the angular velocity. (d) make the body occupy less space. (e) place part of the body farther from the axis. The moment of inertia is proportional to R 2 ; hence, to increase I at fixed mass, the weighted value of R2 must be increased. A solid ball and a cylinder roll down an inclined plane. Which reaches the bottom first? (a) The ball reaches the bottom first. (b) The cylinder reaches the bottom first. (c) They arrive at the bottom at the same time. (d) It depends on the relative masses of the two. (e) It depends on the relative diameter of the two. 2 The smaller the moment of inertia (divided by MR ), the less rotational kinetic energy and the greater translational energy (and speed). A ball has the smallest I / MR 2 , namely 2/5, and hence it reaches the bottom first. The moment of inertia of a body depends on (a) the angular velocity. (b) the angular acceleration. (c) the mass distribution. (d) the torque acting on the body. (e) the linear acceleration. Angular velocity, angular acceleration and torque are kinematic quantities - they do not effect the resistance against angular motion. The moment of inertia depends only on the mass distribution. A point P is at a distance R from the axis of rotation of a rigid body whose angular velocity and angular acceleration are ω and α ρespectively. The linear speed, centripetal acceleration and tangential acceleration of the point can be expresse
