Newton's 2nd law and rotation
Understand the relationship between tangential motion and rotational motion (v = ωr, a = αr)Understand how by applying Newton"s 2nd law to the tangential motion of a particle moving in a circle we find that Γ = mαr2.By considering a rigid body to be made of a number of points, derive the equation Γ = Σmr2.Understand how the moment of inertia is related to the way mass is distributed around the pivot.Solve problems...
