After completing this chapter, you should be able to
1.
Define angular displacement, angular velocity, and angular acceleration and apply these concepts to the solution of physical problems.
2.
Draw analogies relating rotational-motion parameters (q, w, a) to linear-motion parameters, and solve angular acceleration problems in a manner similar to that learned in Chapter 6 for linear acceleration problems (refer to Table 11.1 on p. 224).
3.
Write and apply the relationships between linear speed or acceleration and angular speed or acceleration.
4.
Define the moment of inertia of a body and describe how this quantity and the angular speed can be used to calculate rotational kinetic energy.
5.
Apply the concepts of Newton's second law, rotational work, rotational power, and angular momentum to the solution of physical problems.
