what is angular motion
movement around a fixed point
when does angular motion occur
when a force is applied outside of centre of mass
what is angular displacement
the smallest change in angle between start and end
easy was for angular displacement
how far something has turned
what is the unit for angular displacement
radions
what is angular velocity
rate of chang eof angular displacement
easy way for angular velocity
how quickly something spins
unit for angular velocity
rad/s
what is angular acceleration
rate of change of angular velocity
easy way for angular acceleration
how quickly something gets spinning or slows spinning
unit for angular acceleration
rad/s2
what is moment of inertia
the resistance of a body to angular motion
unit of moment of inertia
kg m 2
what two things does moment of inertia depend on
mass of the body
distribution of mass around axis
how can an athlete increase angular velocity
bring mass towards axis of rotation by changing the shape of their body
