Rotational kinetic energy and moments of inertia

Storyboard

The kinetic energy of rotation is a function of the angular velocity achieved through the application of torque over a given time while traversing a given angle.



Thus, rotational kinetic energy is proportional to the moment of inertia of the object and the square of the angular velocity.

Rotational kinetic energy and moments of inertia

Description

The kinetic energy of rotation is a function of the angular velocity achieved through the application of torque over a given time while traversing a given angle. Thus, rotational kinetic energy is proportional to the moment of inertia of the object and the square of the angular velocity.
