AngularMotionwithConstantAcceleration
LearningGoal:
Tounderstandthemeaningofthevariablesthatappearintheequationsforrotationalkinematicswithconstantangularacceleration.
Rotationalmotionwithaconstantnonzeroaccelerationisnotuncommonintheworldaroundus.Forinstance,manymachineshavespinningparts.When
themachineisturnedonoroff,thespinningpartstendtochangetherateoftheirrotationwithvirtuallyconstantangularacceleration.Manyintroductory
problemsinrotationalkinematicsinvolvemotionofaparticlewithconstant,nonzeroangularacceleration.Thekinematicequationsforsuchmotioncanbe
writtenas
(t) = 0 + 0 t +

and
(t) = 0 + t

Hint1.Howtoapproachtheproblem
Inallcases,thepoleandsignareheldinequilibriumbythetorquesuppliedbythecable.Therefore,bysettingthetorqueduetothecableequal
tothetorqueduetothesignandthepole,youcandeterminetherelativetensioninthecable.Notethatthepoleandsignarethesameineach

Hint2.Themathematicalrelationship
Thetorqueduetothecableisgivenby
\tau=rF\sin\theta,
where\texttip{r}{r}isthedistancefromthehingetotheforceand\texttip{\theta}{theta}istheangleoftheforcerelativetothepole.Sincethe

\tau_{\rmcable}=\tau_{\rmsign}+\tau_{\rmpole},
or
rF\sin\theta=\tau_{\rmsign}+\tau_{\rmpole},
