Rotational kinetic energy is the energy of spinning objects. It depends on both moment of inertia and angular velocity, analogous to translational kinetic energy.

أسئلة شائعة
How does moment of inertia relate to mass distribution?
Objects with mass concentrated far from the rotation axis have higher moment of inertia and require more energy to spin.
Can kinetic energy be converted between rotational and translational?
Yes, rolling objects convert between both types; the total kinetic energy is the sum of both components.
