Physics Unit 10 - Rotational Dynamics
High School, College, and AP Physics 1
In this course we will spend time focusing on the dynamics of rotational motion. This means we will be looking at the forces involved in rotational motion. What causes rotational motion, what changes it's motion, how are Newton's Laws connected?
Many key concepts and topic are explored in depth within this course including:
- Center of Mass
- Equlibrium and Stability
- Torque
- Rotational Inertia
- Moments of Inertia
- Net Torque and Application of Newton's 2nd Law to Rotational Motion
