Examples for rotational kinematics

• Terror at the county fair and the answer
• Measure some real, live rotational motion

  Maybe you could look at some measurements I made to get an idea for what you should see ...

• Physics of the Chevy Corvette
• Physics of a rotating space station

Examples for moment of inertia

• The reasoning behind the idea of moment of inertia
• Simple examples: compute moment of inertia
• What if the body is extended?
• Table of moments of inertia for simple shapes
• Parallel-axis theorem in theory and
  • in practice: the Olympic balloon-whirl
