Key Concepts …
• Rotating masses possess rotational energy• An object can have both kinetic and rotational
energy• Moment of Inertia measures distribution of mass
wrt CM• Two identical mass objects can have very
different moments of inertia• Simple mathematical relationship links angular
velocity to linear velocity as long as no skidding takes place
