Rotational Equilibrium and Newton's First Law in Rotational Form

This study guide covers rotational equilibrium in AP Physics C: Mechanics, focusing on constant angular velocity and torque. It explains the conditions for rotational equilibrium, differentiating it from translational equilibrium. Key concepts include Newton's Laws for Rotation, calculating torques, and problem-solving strategies involving free-body and torque diagrams. The guide also connects rotational motion to work-energy, angular momentum, and linear motion. Finally, it provides practice questions and exam tips covering high-priority topics like moment of inertia.
