Rotational Motion
Torque
Objectives:
- understand the moment of inertia (rotational inertia) of an object or system depends upon the distribution of mass within the objects or system
- Determine the angular acceleration of an object when an external torque or force is applied
- Some items in the notes and chapter reading will be tested over, but will not be covered or discussed in class in order to increase your study habits.
AP Physics 1 - Rotational Dynamics
In the below notes, only take the notes, we will cover the examples at a later time.
Take all the notes in the below section.
