3.2 Primeira Lei de Newton (Lei da Inércia)

Primeira Lei de Newton: se a resultante das forças que atuam numa partícula for nula, então essa partícula livre ou se move sempre em linha reta com velocidade constante (sem aceleração), ou está em repouso.

Para fazer rodar um objeto livre, normalmente aplica-se duas forças, como no exemplo da figura:

10.1 Momento de uma força

Essa rotação depende dos sentidos das forças e dos seus pontos de aplicação:

Se o objeto tiver um ponto fixo, bastará uma força para o fazer rodar. As três forças representadas na figura têm a mesma amplitude (mesmo módulo). Qual delas é mais “eficiente” para desapertar o parafuso?

A linha de ação da força é a linha definida pelo vetor força.

O braço da força é a distância perpendicular entre o ponto de rotação (O) e a linha de ação da força.

O momento da força, relativamente ao ponto de rotação, é o produto da força pelo seu braço:

A capacidade de uma força para provocar uma rotação (ou torção) depende de três parâmetros:

11

Estes três parâmetros definem o momento da força:

1.  a amplitude (módulo) da força; 2.  a distância entre o ponto de

aplicação da força e o eixo de rotação;

3.  o ângulo φ de aplicação da força.

Pode-se interpretar o momento da força de duas maneiras:

12

O momento da força é o produto da distância r (desde o ponto de oscilação ao ponto de aplicação da força) pela componente tangencial da força (Ft = F sen φ):

τ = r F senφ( ) = r Ft

O momento da força é a força F que atua na distância perpendicular d = r sen φ (o braço da força), entre o ponto de oscilação e a linha de ação de F:

τ = F rsenφ( ) = F d

Exemplo A barra de aço da figura tem massa M = 500 kg e comprimento L = 4 m. A barra está apoiada num ponto situado a 1,2 m da extremidade do lado direito e pode rodar em torno desse ponto. Qual é o momento da força gravítica?

τgrav = −(500 kg)(9,80 m/s2)(−0,80m)

τgrav = −M g xCM

Se o ponto de rotação estiver na linha de ação da força gravítica, ou seja, se passar pelo centro de massa, o momento será igual a zero: τgrav=0.

10.3 Condições de equilíbrio

11.2 Center of Gravity 345

11.1 Conditions for EquilibriumWe learned in Sections 4.2 and 5.1 that a particle is in equilibrium—that is, theparticle does not accelerate—in an inertial frame of reference if the vector sum ofall the forces acting on the particle is zero, For an extended body, theequivalent statement is that the center of mass of the body has zero acceleration ifthe vector sum of all external forces acting on the body is zero, as discussed inSection 8.5. This is often called the first condition for equilibrium. In vectorand component forms,

(first condition for equilibrium)

(11.1)

A second condition for an extended body to be in equilibrium is that the bodymust have no tendency to rotate. This condition is based on the dynamics of rota-tional motion in exactly the same way that the first condition is based on New-ton’s first law. A rigid body that, in an inertial frame, is not rotating about acertain point has zero angular momentum about that point. If it is not to startrotating about that point, the rate of change of angular momentum must also bezero. From the discussion in Section 10.5, particularly Eq. (10.29), this meansthat the sum of torques due to all the external forces acting on the body must bezero. A rigid body in equilibrium can’t have any tendency to start rotating aboutany point, so the sum of external torques must be zero about any point. This is thesecond condition for equilibrium:

(11.2)

The sum of the torques due to all external forces acting on the body, with respectto any specified point, must be zero.

In this chapter we will apply the first and second conditions for equilibrium tosituations in which a rigid body is at rest (no translation or rotation). Such a bodyis said to be in static equilibrium (Fig. 11.1). But the same conditions apply to arigid body in uniform translational motion (without rotation), such as an airplanein flight with constant speed, direction, and altitude. Such a body is in equilib-rium but is not static.

11.2 Center of GravityIn most equilibrium problems, one of the forces acting on the body is its weight.We need to be able to calculate the torque of this force. The weight doesn’t act at asingle point; it is distributed over the entire body. But we can always calculate thetorque due to the body’s weight by assuming that the entire force of gravity(weight) is concentrated at a point called the center of gravity (abbreviated “cg”).The acceleration due to gravity decreases with altitude; but if we can ignore thisvariation over the vertical dimension of the body, then the body’s center of gravityis identical to its center of mass (abbreviated “cm”), which we defined in Sec-tion 8.5. We stated this result without proof in Section 10.2, and now we’ll prove it.

CHECK One would expect to be larger for a short wide block (small and large ) thanfor a tall narrow block (large and small ). Our step-5 result meets this expectation.

12-5 STABILITY OF ROTATIONAL EQUILIBRIUM

There are three categories of rotational equilibrium for an object: stable, unstable,or neutral. Stable rotational equilibrium occurs when the torques that arise froma small angular displacement of the object from equilibrium tend to rotate the ob-ject back toward its equilibrium orientation. Stable equilibrium is illustrated inFigure 12-20a. When the cone is tipped slightly as shown, the resulting gravita-tional torque about the pivot point tends to restore the cone to its original orienta-tion. Note that this slight tipping lifts the center of gravity, increasing the gravita-tional potential energy.

Unstable rotational equilibrium, illustrated in Figure 12-20b, occurs when thetorques that arise from a small angular displacement of the object tends to rotatethe object even farther away from its equilibrium orientation. A slight tipping ofthe cone causes it to fall over because the torque due to the gravitational forcetends to rotate it away from its original orientation. Here the rotation lowers thecenter of gravity and decreases the gravitational potential energy.

The cone resting on a horizontal surface in Figure 12-20c illustrates neutralrotational equilibrium. If the cone is rolled slightly, there is no torque that tends

Se se puder desprezar a variação da gravidade com a altitude, por exemplo, o centro de gravidade confunde-se com o centro de massa.

346 CHAPTER 11 Equilibrium and Elasticity

First let’s review the definition of the center of mass. For a collection of parti-cles with masses and coordinates thecoordinates and of the center of mass are given by

(center of mass) (11.3)

Also, and are the components of the position vector of the cen-ter of mass, so Eqs. (11.3) are equivalent to the vector equation

(11.4)

Now consider the gravitational torque on a body of arbitrary shape (Fig. 11.2).We assume that the acceleration due to gravity is the same at every point in thebody. Every particle in the body experiences a gravitational force, and the totalweight of the body is the vector sum of a large number of parallel forces. A typi-cal particle has mass and weight If is the position vector of thisparticle with respect to an arbitrary origin O, then the torque vector of theweight with respect to O is, from Eq. (10.3),

The total torque due to the gravitational forces on all the particles is

When we multiply and divide this by the total mass of the body,

we get

The fraction in this equation is just the position vector of the center of mass,with components and as given by Eq. (11.4), and is equal tothe total weight of the body. Thus

346 CHAPTER 11 Equilibrium and Elasticity

First let’s review the definition of the center of mass. For a collection of parti-cles with masses and coordinates thecoordinates and of the center of mass are given by

(center of mass) (11.3)

Also, and are the components of the position vector of the cen-ter of mass, so Eqs. (11.3) are equivalent to the vector equation

(11.4)

Now consider the gravitational torque on a body of arbitrary shape (Fig. 11.2).We assume that the acceleration due to gravity is the same at every point in thebody. Every particle in the body experiences a gravitational force, and the totalweight of the body is the vector sum of a large number of parallel forces. A typi-cal particle has mass and weight If is the position vector of thisparticle with respect to an arbitrary origin O, then the torque vector of theweight with respect to O is, from Eq. (10.3),

The total torque due to the gravitational forces on all the particles is

When we multiply and divide this by the total mass of the body,

we get

The fraction in this equation is just the position vector of the center of mass,with components and as given by Eq. (11.4), and is equal tothe total weight of the body. Thus

11.2 Center of Gravity 347

The total gravitational torque, given by Eq. (11.5), is the same as though thetotal weight were acting on the position of the center of mass, which wealso call the center of gravity. If has the same value at all points on a body,its center of gravity is identical to its center of mass. Note, however, that thecenter of mass is defined independently of any gravitational effect.

While the value of does vary somewhat with elevation, the variation isextremely slight (Fig. 11.3). Hence we will assume throughout this chapter thatthe center of gravity and center of mass are identical unless explicitly statedotherwise.

Finding and Using the Center of GravityWe can often use symmetry considerations to locate the center of gravity of abody, just as we did for the center of mass. The center of gravity of a homoge-neous sphere, cube, circular sheet, or rectangular plate is at its geometric cen-ter. The center of gravity of a right circular cylinder or cone is on its axis ofsymmetry.

For a body with a more complex shape, we can sometimes locate the center ofgravity by thinking of the body as being made of symmetrical pieces. For exam-ple, we could approximate the human body as a collection of solid cylinders,with a sphere for the head. Then we can locate the center of gravity of the combi-nation with Eqs. (11.3), letting be the masses of the individual piecesand be the coordinates of their centers of gravity.

When a body acted on by gravity is supported or suspended at a single point,the center of gravity is always at or directly above or below the point of suspen-sion. If it were anywhere else, the weight would have a torque with respect to thepoint of suspension, and the body could not be in rotational equilibrium. Figure11.4 shows how to use this fact to determine experimentally the location of thecenter of gravity of an irregular body.

Using the same reasoning, we can see that a body supported at several pointsmust have its center of gravity somewhere within the area bounded by the sup-ports. This explains why a car can drive on a straight but slanted road if the slantangle is relatively small (Fig. 11.5a) but will tip over if the angle is too steep (Fig.11.5b). The truck in Fig. 11.5c has a higher center of gravity than the car and willtip over on a shallower incline. When a truck overturns on a highway and blockstraffic for hours, it’s the high center of gravity that’s to blame.

The lower the center of gravity and the larger the area of support, the moredifficult it is to overturn a body. Four-legged animals such as deer and horseshave a large area of support bounded by their legs; hence they are naturally stableand need only small feet or hooves. Animals that walk erect on two legs, such ashumans and birds, need relatively large feet to give them a reasonable area of

Example 11.3 Will the ladder slip?

Sir Lancelot, who weighs 800 N, is assaulting a castle by climbinga uniform ladder that is 5.0 m long and weighs 180 N (Fig. 11.9a).The bottom of the ladder rests on a ledge and leans across the moatin equilibrium against a frictionless, vertical castle wall. The laddermakes an angle of with the horizontal. Lancelot pauses one-third of the way up the ladder. (a) Find the normal and friction forceson the base of the ladder. (b) Find the minimum coefficient of staticfriction needed to prevent slipping at the base. (c) Find the magni-tude and direction of the contact force on the base of the ladder.

SOLUTION

IDENTIFY and SET UP: The ladder–Lancelot system is stationary,so we can use the two conditions for equilibrium to solve part (a).In part (b), we need the relationship among the static friction force,the coefficient of static friction, and the normal force (see Section5.3). In part (c), the contact force is the vector sum of the normaland friction forces acting at the base of the ladder, found in part (a).Figure 11.9b shows the free-body diagram, with x- and y-directionsas shown and with counterclockwise torques taken to be positive.The ladder’s center of gravity is at its geometric center. Lancelot’s800-N weight acts at a point one-third of the way up the ladder.

The wall exerts only a normal force on the top of the ladder.The forces on the base are an upward normal force and a staticfriction force which must point to the right to prevent slipping.The magnitudes and are the target variables in part (a). FromEq. (5.6), these magnitudes are related by the coeffi-cient of static friction is the target variable in part (b).

EXECUTE: (a) From Eqs. (11.6), the first condition for equilibriumgives

These are two equations for the three unknowns and The second equation gives . To obtain a third equa-tion, we use the second condition for equilibrium. We take torquesabout point B, about which and have no torque. The 53.1°angle creates a 3-4-5 right triangle, so from Fig. 11.9b the leverarm for the ladder’s weight is 1.5 m, the lever arm for Lancelot’sweight is 1.0 m, and the lever arm for is 4.0 m.

The magnitude and direction of (Fig. 11.9c) are

EVALUATE: As Fig. 11.9c shows, the contact force is notdirected along the length of the ladder. Can you show that if were directed along the ladder, there would be a net counterclock-wise torque with respect to the top of the ladder, and equilibriumwould be impossible?

As Lancelot climbs higher on the ladder, the lever arm andtorque of his weight about B increase. This increases the values of

and the required friction coefficient , so the ladder ismore and more likely to slip as he climbs (see Problem 11.10). Asimple way to make slipping less likely is to use a larger ladderangle (say, 75° rather than 53.1°). This decreases the lever armswith respect to B of the weights of the ladder and Lancelot andincreases the lever arm of all of which decrease the requiredfriction force.

If we had assumed friction on the wall as well as on the floor,the problem would be impossible to solve by using the equilibriumconditions alone. (Try it!) The difficulty is that it’s no longer ade-quate to treat the body as being perfectly rigid. Another problem ofthis kind is a four-legged table; there’s no way to use the equilib-rium conditions alone to find the force on each separate leg.

IDENTIFY and SET UP: The ladder–Lancelot system is stationary,so we can use the two conditions for equilibrium to solve part (a).In part (b), we need the relationship among the static friction force,the coefficient of static friction, and the normal force (see Section5.3). In part (c), the contact force is the vector sum of the normaland friction forces acting at the base of the ladder, found in part (a).Figure 11.9b shows the free-body diagram, with x- and y-directionsas shown and with counterclockwise torques taken to be positive.The ladder’s center of gravity is at its geometric center. Lancelot’s800-N weight acts at a point one-third of the way up the ladder.

The wall exerts only a normal force on the top of the ladder.The forces on the base are an upward normal force and a staticfriction force which must point to the right to prevent slipping.The magnitudes and are the target variables in part (a). FromEq. (5.6), these magnitudes are related by the coeffi-cient of static friction is the target variable in part (b).

EXECUTE: (a) From Eqs. (11.6), the first condition for equilibriumgives

These are two equations for the three unknowns and The second equation gives . To obtain a third equa-tion, we use the second condition for equilibrium. We take torquesabout point B, about which and have no torque. The 53.1°angle creates a 3-4-5 right triangle, so from Fig. 11.9b the leverarm for the ladder’s weight is 1.5 m, the lever arm for Lancelot’sweight is 1.0 m, and the lever arm for is 4.0 m.

EVALUATE: As Fig. 11.9c shows, the contact force is notdirected along the length of the ladder. Can you show that if were directed along the ladder, there would be a net counterclock-wise torque with respect to the top of the ladder, and equilibriumwould be impossible?

As Lancelot climbs higher on the ladder, the lever arm andtorque of his weight about B increase. This increases the values of

and the required friction coefficient , so the ladder ismore and more likely to slip as he climbs (see Problem 11.10). Asimple way to make slipping less likely is to use a larger ladderangle (say, 75° rather than 53.1°). This decreases the lever armswith respect to B of the weights of the ladder and Lancelot andincreases the lever arm of all of which decrease the requiredfriction force.

If we had assumed friction on the wall as well as on the floor,the problem would be impossible to solve by using the equilibriumconditions alone. (Try it!) The difficulty is that it’s no longer ade-quate to treat the body as being perfectly rigid. Another problem ofthis kind is a four-legged table; there’s no way to use the equilib-rium conditions alone to find the force on each separate leg.

Example 11.3 Will the ladder slip?

Sir Lancelot, who weighs 800 N, is assaulting a castle by climbinga uniform ladder that is 5.0 m long and weighs 180 N (Fig. 11.9a).The bottom of the ladder rests on a ledge and leans across the moatin equilibrium against a frictionless, vertical castle wall. The laddermakes an angle of with the horizontal. Lancelot pauses one-third of the way up the ladder. (a) Find the normal and friction forceson the base of the ladder. (b) Find the minimum coefficient of staticfriction needed to prevent slipping at the base. (c) Find the magni-tude and direction of the contact force on the base of the ladder.

SOLUTION

IDENTIFY and SET UP: The ladder–Lancelot system is stationary,so we can use the two conditions for equilibrium to solve part (a).In part (b), we need the relationship among the static friction force,the coefficient of static friction, and the normal force (see Section5.3). In part (c), the contact force is the vector sum of the normaland friction forces acting at the base of the ladder, found in part (a).Figure 11.9b shows the free-body diagram, with x- and y-directionsas shown and with counterclockwise torques taken to be positive.The ladder’s center of gravity is at its geometric center. Lancelot’s800-N weight acts at a point one-third of the way up the ladder.

The wall exerts only a normal force on the top of the ladder.The forces on the base are an upward normal force and a staticfriction force which must point to the right to prevent slipping.The magnitudes and are the target variables in part (a). FromEq. (5.6), these magnitudes are related by the coeffi-cient of static friction is the target variable in part (b).

EXECUTE: (a) From Eqs. (11.6), the first condition for equilibriumgives

These are two equations for the three unknowns and The second equation gives . To obtain a third equa-tion, we use the second condition for equilibrium. We take torquesabout point B, about which and have no torque. The 53.1°angle creates a 3-4-5 right triangle, so from Fig. 11.9b the leverarm for the ladder’s weight is 1.5 m, the lever arm for Lancelot’sweight is 1.0 m, and the lever arm for is 4.0 m. The torqueequation for point B is then

EVALUATE: As Fig. 11.9c shows, the contact force is notdirected along the length of the ladder. Can you show that if were directed along the ladder, there would be a net counterclock-wise torque with respect to the top of the ladder, and equilibriumwould be impossible?

As Lancelot climbs higher on the ladder, the lever arm andtorque of his weight about B increase. This increases the values of

and the required friction coefficient , so the ladder ismore and more likely to slip as he climbs (see Problem 11.10). Asimple way to make slipping less likely is to use a larger ladderangle (say, 75° rather than 53.1°). This decreases the lever armswith respect to B of the weights of the ladder and Lancelot andincreases the lever arm of all of which decrease the requiredfriction force.

If we had assumed friction on the wall as well as on the floor,the problem would be impossible to solve by using the equilibriumconditions alone. (Try it!) The difficulty is that it’s no longer ade-quate to treat the body as being perfectly rigid. Another problem ofthis kind is a four-legged table; there’s no way to use the equilib-rium conditions alone to find the force on each separate leg.
