Speedy Spinning Spheres! Using spheres, cylinders, and straws, the Crew and Dr. Rob learn about inertia, velocity, and conservation of energy due to angular momentum. STEM Challenge: Angular ...

Angular momentum (I will refer to its traditional name) also depends upon two things: the angular velocity and the moment of inertia.

This happens because angular momentum is conserved. Angular momentum is an object's moment of inertia times its angular velocity. If one of the latter two increases, the other decreases, and vice ...

This states that the angular momentum is the product of I (the moment of inertia tensor) and ω. The moment of inertia is indeed a tensor (don't worry about that right now).

Eyal Podell and Jonathon E. Stewart, who wrote on the upcoming Cars 3, have been tapped to pen A Tale of Momentum and Inertia for Fox Animation. The project adapts and expands the short animated ...

Much like a figure skater pulling their limbs in to speed up a spin, the more mass an object has near its axis, the faster it will roll. This is called the conservation of angular momentum!
