A person at rest is standing on a low-friction platform or chair and holding a spinning wheel. If the person tilts the wheel, she or he will start rotating according to the law of conservation of ...

Speedy Spinning Spheres! Using spheres, cylinders, and straws, the Crew and Dr. Rob learn about inertia, velocity, and conservation of energy due to angular momentum. STEM Challenge: Angular Momentum ...

In a closed physical system, the sum of all angular momentum remains constant – says an important physical law of conservation. Angular momentum does not necessarily need to involve "real" bodily ...

This course introduces the quantum mechanical concept of angular momentum operator and its relationship with rotation operator. It then presents the angular momentum operators, their eigenvalues and ...

In an introductory physics course, there are three big ideas. There is the work-energy principle, the momentum principle and then the angular momentum principle. I'll skip the work-energy principle ...
