Rotational motion (3)
This document defines and explains various concepts related to rotational motion including: 1. Angular position, displacement, velocity, and acceleration which describe the rotational analogs of linear position, displacement, velocity, and acceleration. 2. Key equations of angular motion analogous to linear equations of motion. 3. Relationships between linear and angular quantities like displacement, velocity, and acceleration. 4. Concepts like moment of inertia, radius of gyration, angular momentum, and torque which describe rotational motion and its relationship to applied forces. 5. Theorems regarding moment of inertia including the theorem of parallel axes and perpendicular axes.
