GENERAL METHOD FOR INVESTIGATING PLANAR MOTION OF SOLID BARS

Abstract

In this paper, we present general method to investigate the planar motion of solid bar. This method includes three steps. The first step is to determine the coordinates, deduce velocity and acceleration; the second is to calculate angular velocities and accelerations; the third is to find out the required physical quantities corresponding to each problem. This method is applied for studying the behavior of solid bars in the case of planar motion, especially the time after they start moving.
