4.1 The relationship between the moment of force, the moment of inertia, and the angular acceleration<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

If there is a resultant force (\u03a3F) acting on an object with mass (m) then the object moves linearly with a certain acceleration (a). The relationship between the resultant force, mass, and acceleration<\/a> is expressed by the equation:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u03a3<\/span><\/span>F = m a<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This is the equation of Newton<\/a>‘s second law.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The quantities of the rotational motion which are identical to the resultant force (\u03a3F) in linear motion is the resultant moment of force (\u03a3\u03c4). The quantities of the rotational motion that are identical to mass (m) in linear motion is the moment of inertia (I). The quantities of the rotational motion that are identical to acceleration (a) in linear motion is the angular acceleration (\u03b1).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If there is a resultant moment of force (\u03a3\u03c4) acting on an object that has a certain moment of inertia (I) then the object rotates with a certain angular acceleration (\u03b1). The relationship between the resultant moment force, the moment of inertia, and angular acceleration is expressed through the equation:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u03a3\u03c4 = I \u03b1<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This equation is a rotational analogy of Newton’s second law.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The solid pulley with a mass of 2M and radius of R, on the edge, wrapped a rope, one end of the rope hung with a load with a mass of m. When the load is removed, the pulley rotates with angular acceleration. If the pulley is attached to an object with mass M, so that the pulley rotates with the same angular acceleration, determine the mass of the load.
