Adopt coordinates, name the variables, indicate rotation axes, list the known and unknown quantities, … • Draw free bbdody diagrams of key parts. Show forces at thiheir points of application. find torques about a (common) axis Note: can have • May need to apply Second Law twice to each part Fnet .eq. 0 G G but τ .ne. 0 ¾ Translation: net Fnet = ∑Fi = ma G G G ¾ Rotation: τnet = ∑ τi = Iα • Make sure there are enouggqh (N) equations; there may be constraint equations (extra conditions connecting unknowns) • Simplify and solve the set of (simultaneous) equations. • Interpret the final formulas. Do they make intuitive sense? Refer back to the sketches and original problem • Calculate numerical results, and sanity check anwers (e.g., right order of magnitude?)
