INTRODUCTION
In this Chapter we will do motion analysis of rigid bodies without involving
the forces responsible for the motion. We will learn to find the position,
velocity and acceleration of the different particles which together form a rigid
body.
In kinematics of particles the size or dimensions of the body were not taken
into consideration during motion analysis, since we treated the entire body
irrespective of its size (as large as a car, lift, train or airplane) as one single
particle. In rigid body kinematics, we shall involve the size and dimensions of
the body also. Therefore, now the body would be considered as made up of
several particles, connected to each other, such that their relative positions
do not change, as the body performs its motion.
There are various types of rigid body motion. We will begin with first
classifying them and then we will study each type in detail and thereby
develop our base for study of kinetics of rigid bodies.
Types of Rigid Body Motion
The motion of the rigid body can be classified under the following types,
1) Translation
2) Rotation about fixed axis
3) General plane motion
4) Motion about a fixed point
5) General motion
TRANSLATION MOTION
In this type of motion all the particles forming the body travel along parallel
paths. Also the orientation of the body does not
change during motion. Translation motion is
further classified as:
a) Rectilinear Translation
b) Curvilinear Translation

Rectilinear Translation
In this type of translation motion, all the particles travel along straight
parallel paths. Consider the motion of a body from position (1) to position (2).
Here we note two things, firstly a straight line joining particles P and Q in
position (1) maintains the same direction in position (2) This indicates that
the orientation of the body remains the same throughout the motion. The
second thing which is special to rectilinear translation motion, is that the
path described by the various particles, such as P and Q in our example, are
parallel and they are straight.
Examples of rectilinear translation motion are,
1) A piston which travels in the fixed slot.
2) Motion of train on a straight track.
3) Motion of lift etc.
Curvilinear Translation
In this type of translation motion, all the particles travel along curved parallel
paths. Consider the motion of a body from position (1) to position (2)
Here we note that the line joining particles P and Q in position (1) has the
same orientation in position (2) This is indicative of translation motion of the
body. Further the path described by all the particles, such as P and Q in our
example, are parallel and they are curved. This indicates curvilinear
translation motion.
At a given instant, for a translation motion, both rectilinear and curvilinear,
all the particles of the body have same velocity and same acceleration.

ROTATION ABOUT FIXED AXIS
In this motion all the particles forming the body
travel along circular paths of different radii,
around a common centre. This common point is
known as centre of rotation. An axis
perpendicular to the plane of the body and
passing through the centre of rotation is known
as the axis of rotation. Since the axis of rotation
remains stationary or fixed, we call such motion
as Rotation about Fixed Axis.
Important Terms
1) Angular Position
Let O, be the centre of rotation and z axis be
the fixed axis of rotation. Let the x axis be the
reference axis with respect to which we
measure the position of the rotating body. Let
us mark an arbitrary point P on the body.
The angle  measured in the anticlockwise
direction which the line OP makes with the x
axis would then be the angular position of the
particle.
As the body rotates and occupies position (2), the angular position of the
body also changes and would have a new value of . Angular position is
measured in units of radians (rad). It may also be measured in units of
revolution or degree. These are related as
1 revolution = 2 rad = 360
For example, if the body’s initial angular position is 30 0.5236 rad and it
completes two revolutions, its new angular position would be,
750 13.09 rad .

2) Angular Displacement
The change in angular position of the body during its motion is known as
the angular displacement of the body.
If 1 , is the angular position of the body in position (1) and if this changes
to 2 at position (2), the angular displacement of the body is,
2 1=   
3) Angular Velocity
The rate of change of angular position with respect to time is the angular
velocity of the rotating body.
d
dt

  ……. [13.2]
The magnitude of angular velocity is denoted by notation  (omega) and its
direction acts along the axis of rotation, the sense being defined by right
hand rule. i.e. for a body in the x-y plane rotating about a fixed axis
parallel to the z axis in the anticlockwise direction, will have positive
angular velocity. The same body, if its rotates in the clockwise direction
will have negative angular velocity. Angular velocity is represented by
curved arrow representing clockwise or anticlockwise sense.
Units of angular velocity are rad/s, through other unit like revolutions per
minute (rpm) is also commonly used. They are related as
2
1 rpm = rad/s
60

4) Angular Acceleration:
The rate of change of angular velocity with respect to time is the angular
acceleration of the rotating body.
d
dt

  ……. [13.3]
The magnitude of angular acceleration is denoted by notation  (alpha)
and its direction acts along the axis of rotation. The sense of angular
acceleration is same as the sense of angular velocity, if the angular velocity
increases with time, and is opposite to the sense of angular velocity, if the
angular velocity decreases with time. Angular acceleration is represented
by curved arrow, representing clockwise or anticlockwise sense.
Units of angular acceleration are rad/s2

Types of Rotation Motion about Fixed Axis
Rotation about fixed axis can be classified under three categories,
1) Uniform Angular Velocity Motion:

remains constant during motion. For such motions, we use a simple

3) Variable Angular Acceleration Motion:
In this case of rotation motion the angular velocity changes during motion
and the rate of change of angular velocity is variable.

Relation between Linear Velocity and Angular Velocity
 Consider a body rotating about a fixed axis passing through O.
 Let at the given instant, the angular velocity of the body be  rad/s
anticlockwise.
 All the particles on the rotating body will have the same angular velocity
but different linear velocity. If vP is the linear velocity of a particle P and
also rPO is the radial distance from P to O, then
P POv r  
 The sense of vP would be consistent with the direction of  .
 In general linear velocity v of any particle located at a radial distance r
from the axis of rotation O is related to the angular velocity  of the body
by a relation.
v r  ………. [13.7]
Relation between Linear Acceleration and Angular Acceleration
 Consider a body rotating about a fixed axis passing through O, having an
angular velocity  and angular acceleration  , at the given instant as
shown.
 We have studied in Chapter 9 that a particle
in curvilinear motion, has acceleration 'a'
which can be resolved into normal component
an and tangential component at. Similarly if
ap is the acceleration of particle P and if (an)p
and (at)p are its components, then

Special case 1 of rotation motion: A block connected to s rotating
pulley
Consider a pulley of radius r, hinged at the centre and supporting a block by
a string wound over it. The rotational motion of the pulley is related to
translation motion of the block. This relation can be worked out.
Let at a given instant, the pulley have an angular position of  rad, angular
velocity of  rad/s and angular acceleration of 
rad/s2.
Let xA, vA and aA be the corresponding position, velocity
and acceleration respectively of the block A at this
instant.
Since the block translates, the string connecting it also
translates. We find point P on the pu1ley is common to
the rotating pulley and the translating block.
Refer figure. If point P belongs to the pulley, its
position, linear velocity and tangential acceleration is
given by
ps = r and pv = r and  t p

 Special case 2 of rotation motion: A pulley coupled to another pulley
and they rotate without slip
Consider a pulley A of radius rA, be
coupled to another pulley B of radius rB,
and the two rotate without slip. The
rotational motion of pulley A is related to
the rotational motion of pulley B. This
relation can be worked out. Let at a given
instant, pulley A have an angular
position of A rad, angular velocity of A
rad/s and angular acceleration of A rad / s2.
Let B , B and B be the corresponding angular position, angular velocity
and angular acceleration of pulley B at this instant.
Since the pulley A rotates, it causes pulley B to also rotate. We find point P is
a common point to the two pulleys.
If point P belongs to pulley A, its position, linear velocity and tangential
acceleration is given by
P A AS = r θ and P A Av = r ω and t P A A(a ) = r α
Similarly point P also belongs to pulley B, therefore if the above parameters
are related to the pulley B, we have
P A A B Bs = r θ = r θ ………. (a)
P A A B Bv = r ω = r ω ………. (b)
t P A A B B(a ) = r α = r α ………. (c)
Equation (a), (b) and (c) relate the motions of two pulleys or gears engaged
with one another.

GENERAL PLANE MOTION
Translation motion and rotation about fixed axis motion are plane motions
since the motion of the body can be analysed by taking a representative slab
or a plane of the body. They may also be referred to as a Two Dimensional
Motion.
Any plane motion which does not fall under
the category of rotation about fixed axis or
translation motion can be put under the
category of general plane motion. In fact a
general plane motion is a combination of
translation motion and rotation motion. Three
examples of body performing general plane
motion are shown below.
In Fig. (a), Two blocks A and B travel is fixed slot performing translation
motion. The blocks are pin-connected by a link AB. The link AB moves from
position (1) to position (2) performing general plane motion. We observe that
the link AB rotates, but not about a fixed axis. Thus the centre of rotation of
the link AB performing general plane motion keeps on moving at every
instant.
In Fig. (b), rod AB, rod BC and block C, form a pin-connected mechanism.
The rod AB performs rotation motion about fixed axis at A. Piston C is free to
perform translation motion in the fixed slot. It is the rod BC which neither
performs pure translation or pure rotation motion. It is therefore said to
perform general plane motion. The centre of rotation of rod BC keeps on
changing as it performs general plane motion.

13
In Fig. (c), a wheel rolls without slip on the
ground. The rolling wheel rotates as well as
translates. It therefore performs general plane
motion. In general any-body which rolls
without slip performs general plane motion.
Though G.P. bodies don’t actually translate
and then rotate in succession, but the motion can be duplicated by first
translating the body and then rotating it.
General Plane Motion = Translation Motion + Rotation Motion
Consider a body which has moved from position (1) to position (2) performing
G.P. motion. Refer Fig. Let P and Q be two arbitrary points chosen on it. We
may duplicate the motion by first translating the body to its position (2), i.e.
segment PQ maintains its orientation and remains parallel. Now we can
rotate the body about P to get the true orientation of the body. Hence G.P.
Motion is said to be a sum of Translation Motion and Rotation Motion.

RELATIVE VELOCITY METHOD
 We know that a G.P. Motion is a sum of translation and rotation motion.
To find the angular velocity of a body performing G.P. Motion, we may use
the relative Velocity Method, which is one of the methods for analysing
G.P. motion. To understand this method we note down the required steps
and simultaneously take up an example and apply the procedure.
 Consider a rod AB pin-connected to pistons A and B which move in fixed
slots as shown. Let piston B have a known velocity vB to the right. Let us
learn to find angular velocity AB of the G.P. body AB.
Step 1. Locate a point on the G.P. body whose magnitude and direction of
velocity is known. Such a point is referred to as the reference point
and the known velocity is referred to as the translating velocity.
In our example, the velocity of point B i.e. vB is known. Hence B is
the reference point and vB is the translating velocity.
Step 2. Locate another point on the G.P body whose direction of velocity is
known. Such a point is referred to as translation point.
In our example, the direction of velocity of point A is known, since it
is constrained to move in the vertical slot. Point A is therefore the
translation point.
Step 3. Translate the body with the translating velocity and then rotate it
about the reference point with the angular velocity of the G.P body.
In our example, the bar is translated with translating velocity vB and
then rotated about reference point B with angular velocity AB .
Step 4. Write the relation for the relative linear velocity of translation point.
In our example, we write the relative linear velocity of translation
point A as
A/B AB ABV = r +  …… (1)
www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com
15
Step 5. Write the relation for the absolute velocity of the
translation point. Simultaneously draw the vector
diagram for the same. Obtain the relative velocity of
the translation point and hence obtain the angular
velocity of the G.P body.
In our example,
A B A/BV = V + V ….. (2)
From relation (2), A
B/
V can be found out, which in turn when
substituted in relation (1) gives the angular velocity AB .
Instantaneous Centre Method
 Instantaneous Centre is defined as the
point about which the G.P. body rotates
at the given instant. This point keeps on
changing as the G.P. body performs its
motion. The locus of the instantaneous
centres during the motion is known as
centroid. Instantaneous Centre may be
denoted by letter I.
 Let us understand the Instantaneous Centre Method to find the angular
velocity of a G.P body. Let us work with the earlier example we took in
article 13.5.1
Given- vB i.e. velocity of block B
To find - Angular velocity of rod AB at given instant
Step 1. Locate a point on the G.P body whose magnitude, direction and
sense of velocity is known and another point whose direction of
velocity is known. Mark the direction of velocity (Dov) of these two
points.
In our example, the magnitude and Dov of point B (DovB) is known
and also Dov of point A is known (DovA)
www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com
16
Step 2. Draw perpendiculars to the direction of velocities (Dov) and extend
them to intersect at a point. Call this point as I.
Step 3. Point I i.e. the instantaneous centre, is the centre of rotation of the
G.P body at the given instant. Now treating the G.P body as a
rotating body about I, and using v = r ω relation, the angular
velocity of the G.P body can be found out.
In our example, the radial length rBI can be found out by geometry of
 ABI.
Next using vB = rBI × ωAB
The angular velocity ωAB can be found out
Also now knowing ωAB , velocity of block A can be found out, using
vA - rAI × ωAB

ROTATION ABOUT FIXED POINT
In this type of rigid body motion, the body rotates about a fixed point, but the
axis of rotation passing through the fixed point is not stationary as its
direction keeps on changing. Such motion is a three dimensional motion.
Example of this type of motion is of a top rotating about the pivot at O. The
axis of rotation is not fixed but changes its direction as the top rotates about
fixed pivot point O. Refer Fig.
Another example of rotation about a fixed point is of the motion of a boom
which is ball and socket supported at a point O on the crane. Fig. 13.15
shows the boom of a crane being raised up by rotation about the z axis, and
at the same time the crane itself rotates about the y axis to position the boom
over its target.
GENERAL MOTION
 Any other motion of the rigid bodies which do not fit in any of the above
four types of rigid body motion, may be classified as a General Motion.
 Motion analysis of a rigid body having Rotation Motion about a Fixed Point
of General Motion of a rigid body are beyond the scope of this book.

Kinematics of rigid bodies

  • 1. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com 1 P INTRODUCTION In this Chapter we will do motion analysis of rigid bodies without involving the forces responsible for the motion. We will learn to find the position, velocity and acceleration of the different particles which together form a rigid body. In kinematics of particles the size or dimensions of the body were not taken into consideration during motion analysis, since we treated the entire body irrespective of its size (as large as a car, lift, train or airplane) as one single particle. In rigid body kinematics, we shall involve the size and dimensions of the body also. Therefore, now the body would be considered as made up of several particles, connected to each other, such that their relative positions do not change, as the body performs its motion. There are various types of rigid body motion. We will begin with first classifying them and then we will study each type in detail and thereby develop our base for study of kinetics of rigid bodies. Types of Rigid Body Motion The motion of the rigid body can be classified under the following types, 1) Translation 2) Rotation about fixed axis 3) General plane motion 4) Motion about a fixed point 5) General motion TRANSLATION MOTION In this type of motion all the particles forming the body travel along parallel paths. Also the orientation of the body does not change during motion. Translation motion is further classified as: a) Rectilinear Translation b) Curvilinear Translation Kinematics of Rigid Bodies
  • 2. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com 2 Rectilinear Translation In this type of translation motion, all the particles travel along straight parallel paths. Consider the motion of a body from position (1) to position (2). Here we note two things, firstly a straight line joining particles P and Q in position (1) maintains the same direction in position (2) This indicates that the orientation of the body remains the same throughout the motion. The second thing which is special to rectilinear translation motion, is that the path described by the various particles, such as P and Q in our example, are parallel and they are straight. Examples of rectilinear translation motion are, 1) A piston which travels in the fixed slot. 2) Motion of train on a straight track. 3) Motion of lift etc. Curvilinear Translation In this type of translation motion, all the particles travel along curved parallel paths. Consider the motion of a body from position (1) to position (2) Here we note that the line joining particles P and Q in position (1) has the same orientation in position (2) This is indicative of translation motion of the body. Further the path described by all the particles, such as P and Q in our example, are parallel and they are curved. This indicates curvilinear translation motion. At a given instant, for a translation motion, both rectilinear and curvilinear, all the particles of the body have same velocity and same acceleration.

  • 3. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com 3 ROTATION ABOUT FIXED AXIS In this motion all the particles forming the body travel along circular paths of different radii, around a common centre. This common point is known as centre of rotation. An axis perpendicular to the plane of the body and passing through the centre of rotation is known as the axis of rotation. Since the axis of rotation remains stationary or fixed, we call such motion as Rotation about Fixed Axis. Important Terms 1) Angular Position Let O, be the centre of rotation and z axis be the fixed axis of rotation. Let the x axis be the reference axis with respect to which we measure the position of the rotating body. Let us mark an arbitrary point P on the body. The angle  measured in the anticlockwise direction which the line OP makes with the x axis would then be the angular position of the particle. As the body rotates and occupies position (2), the angular position of the body also changes and would have a new value of . Angular position is measured in units of radians (rad). It may also be measured in units of revolution or degree. These are related as 1 revolution = 2 rad = 360 For example, if the body’s initial angular position is 30 0.5236 rad and it completes two revolutions, its new angular position would be, 750 13.09 rad .
  • 4. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com 4 2) Angular Displacement The change in angular position of the body during its motion is known as the angular displacement of the body. If 1 , is the angular position of the body in position (1) and if this changes to 2 at position (2), the angular displacement of the body is, 2 1=    3) Angular Velocity The rate of change of angular position with respect to time is the angular velocity of the rotating body. d dt    ……. [13.2] The magnitude of angular velocity is denoted by notation  (omega) and its direction acts along the axis of rotation, the sense being defined by right hand rule. i.e. for a body in the x-y plane rotating about a fixed axis parallel to the z axis in the anticlockwise direction, will have positive angular velocity. The same body, if its rotates in the clockwise direction will have negative angular velocity. Angular velocity is represented by curved arrow representing clockwise or anticlockwise sense. Units of angular velocity are rad/s, through other unit like revolutions per minute (rpm) is also commonly used. They are related as 2 1 rpm = rad/s 60  4) Angular Acceleration: The rate of change of angular velocity with respect to time is the angular acceleration of the rotating body. d dt    ……. [13.3] The magnitude of angular acceleration is denoted by notation  (alpha) and its direction acts along the axis of rotation. The sense of angular acceleration is same as the sense of angular velocity, if the angular velocity increases with time, and is opposite to the sense of angular velocity, if the angular velocity decreases with time. Angular acceleration is represented by curved arrow, representing clockwise or anticlockwise sense. Units of angular acceleration are rad/s2
  • 5. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com 5 Types of Rotation Motion about Fixed Axis Rotation about fixed axis can be classified under three categories, 1) Uniform Angular Velocity Motion: In this case of rotation motion the angular velocity of the rotating body remains constant during motion. For such motions, we use a simple relation relating , and t as  .........[13.4] t    2) Uniform Angular Acceleration Motion: In this case of rotation motion, the angular velocity of the rotating body is not constant, but increases or decreases at a constant rate. 0 0 If initial angular velocity final angular velocity angular acceleration angular displacement of the body t time interval, then we relate , , ,             and t as 0= + a t  …… [13.5 (a)] 2 0= t + ½ a t  …… [13.5 (b)] 2 2 0= + 2 a   …… [13.5 (c)] 3) Variable Angular Acceleration Motion: In this case of rotation motion the angular velocity changes during motion and the rate of change of angular velocity is variable. To solve problem on variable angular acceleration motion we make use of the basic differential equations discussed earlier. d dt    .........[13.2] d dt    …… [13.2] d dt    …… [13.3] From equations 13.2 and 13.3, we have d d      …… [13.6]

The rotational motion of the pulley is related to translation motion of the block. This relation can be worked out. Let at a given instant, the pulley have an angular position of  rad, angular velocity of  rad/s and angular acceleration of  rad/s2. Let xA, vA and aA be the corresponding position, velocity and acceleration respectively of the block A at this instant. Since the block translates, the string connecting it also translates. We find point P on the pu1ley is common to the rotating pulley and the translating block. Refer figure. If point P belongs to the pulley, its position, linear velocity and tangential acceleration is given by ps = r and pv = r and  t p a r Relating these parameters to the motion of the connected block, we have A p Ax s x r   .……… [13.9 (a)] A p Av v v r   ……….

  • 9. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com 9  Special case 2 of rotation motion: A pulley coupled to another pulley and they rotate without slip Consider a pulley A of radius rA, be coupled to another pulley B of radius rB, and the two rotate without slip. The rotational motion of pulley A is related to the rotational motion of pulley B. This relation can be worked out. Let at a given instant, pulley A have an angular position of A rad, angular velocity of A rad/s and angular acceleration of A rad / s2. Let B , B and B be the corresponding angular position, angular velocity and angular acceleration of pulley B at this instant. Since the pulley A rotates, it causes pulley B to also rotate. We find point P is a common point to the two pulleys. If point P belongs to pulley A, its position, linear velocity and tangential acceleration is given by P A AS = r θ and P A Av = r ω and t P A A(a ) = r α Similarly point P also belongs to pulley B, therefore if the above parameters are related to the pulley B, we have P A A B Bs = r θ = r θ ………. (a) P A A B Bv = r ω = r ω ………. (b) t P A A B B(a ) = r α = r α ………. (c) Equation (a), (b) and (c) relate the motions of two pulleys or gears engaged with one another.

The tub makes 49 revolutions before coming to rest. Determine the constant angular deceleration of the tub and the time it takes to come to a halt. 2. P2. A wheel rotating about a fixed axis at 15 rpm is uniformly accelerated for 60 sec during which it makes 30 revolutions.

They may also be referred to as a Two Dimensional Motion. Any plane motion which does not fall under the category of rotation about fixed axis or translation motion can be put under the category of general plane motion. In fact a general plane motion is a combination of translation motion and rotation motion. Three examples of body performing general plane motion are shown below. In Fig. (a), Two blocks A and B travel is fixed slot performing translation motion. The blocks are pin-connected by a link AB. The link AB moves from position (1) to position (2) performing general plane motion. We observe that the link AB rotates, but not about a fixed axis. Thus the centre of rotation of the link AB performing general plane motion keeps on moving at every instant. In Fig. (b), rod AB, rod BC and block C, form a pin-connected mechanism. The rod AB performs rotation motion about fixed axis at A. Piston C is free to perform translation motion in the fixed slot. It is the rod BC which neither performs pure translation or pure rotation motion. It is therefore said to perform general plane motion. The centre of rotation of rod BC keeps on changing as it performs general plane motion.
  • 13. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com 13 In Fig. (c), a wheel rolls without slip on the ground. The rolling wheel rotates as well as translates. It therefore performs general plane motion. In general any-body which rolls without slip performs general plane motion. Though G.P. bodies don’t actually translate and then rotate in succession, but the motion can be duplicated by first translating the body and then rotating it. General Plane Motion = Translation Motion + Rotation Motion Consider a body which has moved from position (1) to position (2) performing G.P. motion. Refer Fig. Let P and Q be two arbitrary points chosen on it. We may duplicate the motion by first translating the body to its position (2), i.e. segment PQ maintains its orientation and remains parallel. Now we can rotate the body about P to get the true orientation of the body. Hence G.P. Motion is said to be a sum of Translation Motion and Rotation Motion.
  • 14. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com 14 RELATIVE VELOCITY METHOD  We know that a G.P. Motion is a sum of translation and rotation motion. To find the angular velocity of a body performing G.P. Motion, we may use the relative Velocity Method, which is one of the methods for analysing G.P. motion. To understand this method we note down the required steps and simultaneously take up an example and apply the procedure.  Consider a rod AB pin-connected to pistons A and B which move in fixed slots as shown. Let piston B have a known velocity vB to the right. Let us learn to find angular velocity AB of the G.P. body AB. Step 1. Locate a point on the G.P. body whose magnitude and direction of velocity is known. Such a point is referred to as the reference point and the known velocity is referred to as the translating velocity. In our example, the velocity of point B i.e. vB is known. Hence B is the reference point and vB is the translating velocity. Step 2. Locate another point on the G.P body whose direction of velocity is known. Such a point is referred to as translation point. In our example, the direction of velocity of point A is known, since it is constrained to move in the vertical slot. Point A is therefore the translation point. Step 3. Translate the body with the translating velocity and then rotate it about the reference point with the angular velocity of the G.P body. In our example, the bar is translated with translating velocity vB and then rotated about reference point B with angular velocity AB . Step 4. Write the relation for the relative linear velocity of translation point. In our example, we write the relative linear velocity of translation point A as A/B AB ABV = r +  …… (1)
  • 15. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com 15 Step 5. Write the relation for the absolute velocity of the translation point. Simultaneously draw the vector diagram for the same. Obtain the relative velocity of the translation point and hence obtain the angular velocity of the G.P body. In our example, A B A/BV = V + V ….. (2) From relation (2), A B/ V can be found out, which in turn when substituted in relation (1) gives the angular velocity AB . Instantaneous Centre Method  Instantaneous Centre is defined as the point about which the G.P. body rotates at the given instant. This point keeps on changing as the G.P. body performs its motion. The locus of the instantaneous centres during the motion is known as centroid. Instantaneous Centre may be denoted by letter I.  Let us understand the Instantaneous Centre Method to find the angular velocity of a G.P body. Let us work with the earlier example we took in article 13.5.1 Given- vB i.e. velocity of block B To find - Angular velocity of rod AB at given instant Step 1. Locate a point on the G.P body whose magnitude, direction and sense of velocity is known and another point whose direction of velocity is known. Mark the direction of velocity (Dov) of these two points. In our example, the magnitude and Dov of point B (DovB) is known and also Dov of point A is known (DovA)
  • 16. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com 16 Step 2. Draw perpendiculars to the direction of velocities (Dov) and extend them to intersect at a point. Call this point as I. Step 3. Point I i.e. the instantaneous centre, is the centre of rotation of the G.P body at the given instant. Now treating the G.P body as a rotating body about I, and using v = r ω relation, the angular velocity of the G.P body can be found out. In our example, the radial length rBI can be found out by geometry of  ABI. Next using vB = rBI × ωAB The angular velocity ωAB can be found out Also now knowing ωAB , velocity of block A can be found out, using vA - rAI × ωAB
  • 17. www.ekeeda.com Contact : 9029006464 Email : care@ekeeda.com 17 ROTATION ABOUT FIXED POINT In this type of rigid body motion, the body rotates about a fixed point, but the axis of rotation passing through the fixed point is not stationary as its direction keeps on changing. Such motion is a three dimensional motion. Example of this type of motion is of a top rotating about the pivot at O. The axis of rotation is not fixed but changes its direction as the top rotates about fixed pivot point O. Refer Fig. Another example of rotation about a fixed point is of the motion of a boom which is ball and socket supported at a point O on the crane. Fig. 13.15 shows the boom of a crane being raised up by rotation about the z axis, and at the same time the crane itself rotates about the y axis to position the boom over its target. GENERAL MOTION  Any other motion of the rigid bodies which do not fit in any of the above four types of rigid body motion, may be classified as a General Motion.  Motion analysis of a rigid body having Rotation Motion about a Fixed Point of General Motion of a rigid body are beyond the scope of this book.
