AP physics students came up with experiments to demonstrate rotational inertia in Ms. Reynolds’s class today. In this example, once Bennett is spun in the chair, his momentum stays (relatively speaking) the same, whether his arms are extended or held close. However, as the mass (meaning the weights) moves closer to the center, his rotational speed increases and he spins faster, in a phenomenon known as conservation of angular momentum. #scienceisfun #apphysics #gowolves #spinningexperience | Jew
