This study guide covers rotational kinetic energy, including the equation (1/2 * I * ฯ^2
), its relationship to translational kinetic energy, and calculating the total kinetic energy of systems. It also discusses the scalar nature of rotational energy, connections to work-energy theorem and conservation of energy, and common mistakes to avoid. Finally, it provides practice questions and exam tips.
