Q

newtons 1st law (angular motion)

A

A rotating body will continue with constant torque until a large enough external force is acted up upon it

Q

newtons 2nd law (angular motion)

A
  • The rate of change of angular motion is proportional to the force changing it.

The change in speed for of angular motion is often down to position

Q

Angular displacement

A
  • is the smallest change in angle between the start and finish points of a rotation.
  • It is measured in degrees and radians

Q

Conservation of angular motion - decreasing

A
  • To slow down angular motion, a performer must increase their moment of inertia
  • This is achieved by opening out their limbs and their body

Q

Conservation of angular motion - increasing

A
  • To increase angular motion, a performer must decrease their moment of inertia
  • This is achieved by tucking their body/bringing their arms together
