Ultimately, I want to relate the angular momentum to the sum of the torques. Towards that end we have to discuss semantics a little bit. We need to be careful a a vector viewed from and defined in. I drew up a simple schematic for discussion purposes. Consider the point A, mass m, translates due...

Hello, I appreciate you taking the time to look at my problem. Considering the second method I presented, if you assume that there is no forward velocity then H|_{bulk}=0 \implies H_{X'Y'Z'}=H|_{roll}: H|_{roll}=(Ixx \omega_x + -Ixz\omega_z)\hat{i}+ (-Izx \omega_x + Izz...

Hello, I'm trying to determine whether my work for the following rigid body motion is correct, and if so why I'm not able to verify equivalent formulations. For the sake of simplicity small angle approximations will be used, and cross terms were neglected. Homework Statement...

Ah that makes sense. Let me work with this for a little while, and if I have any issues I'll re-post. Thanks!

Homework Statement Hello, I'm having some issues deriving the momentum equation for rigid body motion in a non-inertial frame. Consider a rigid body moving in a two dimensional (inertial XY) plane. A body fixed frame (origin denoted as B) is located off the center of gravity. The body has...
