    Instantaneous center of rotation

    Ok by definition the instantaneous center of rotation should have zero velocity in a given instant of time. So if I understood correctly it doesn’t moves only relative to the object, but it moves relative to an external fixed coordinate system in a way that can be described also with rotation...

    Instantaneous center of rotation

    The force F is applied at point A of an object. In the first image the force makes the object rotate around the point C by an angle α. In the second image the force makes the object rotate around the point B by the same angle α and makes the point B translate in the same direction of the...

    Instantaneous center of rotation

    Doing that doesn’t mean considering a tangential force as a linear force? Because the arbitrary rotation point is not actually in translation. For small angle this can be a reasonable approximation but it shouldn’t be the same thing, right? So is it correct to consider only the module? I made...

    Instantaneous center of rotation

    In absence of any other forces, if you push a free object not on the center of mass, during the application of the force (not after) should it only rotate around its instantaneous center of rotation (also called pole or center of oscillation/percussion)? Or it can also be subjected to...
