Next week (7 days from now)
Name, group no., date and time of tutorial class

Kinematics of rigid body (summary)

Translation

Kinematics of rigid body (summary)

Rotation

Kinematics of rigid body (summary)

General motion = translation + rotation

Kinematics of rigid body (summary)

Relative motion

How do you convert velocity/acceleration in one frame to the other frame?

Kinematics of rigid body (summary)

No relative motion: (2-point formula)
No relative motion between any two points on each rigid body
One frame and one coordinate system

Relative motion: (rotating frame formulation)

Needs two different frames
Each frame needs one coordinate system
The rotating frame has angular velocity and acceleration with respect to

the fixed frame
