(>) The moment of inertia of a body about soe axis depends on
~ the way in which the aass is distributed; and
= the position and orientation of the axis of rotation.
The moment of inertia has a role in rotational motion
which 1s analogous to that of the mass in linear motion:
- The mass in linear motion represents the factor
determining the Linear acceleration associated with a
particular force. 1
~ The moment of inertia represents the factor determining
the angular acceleration associated with a particular torque. 1
Thus both are factors representing the ‘inertia’ of the

(4) As cylinder A.slides down a smooth slope, no rotation occurs so
ALL the potential energy 1s converted to translational k.e. 1
As cylinder B rolls down a rough slope, the potential energy is
converted to translational and rotational k.e.
Since the loss in potential energy is the same for both cylinde
the translational k.e. of cylinder A is greater than that of
cylinder
Hence cylinder A (same mass as 8) has the greater velocity when
reaching the bottom of the slope. aaPHY IIS MS

wavefront of a wave acts as a source of secondary wavelets. hoo

Force must be applied to extend a solid, thus it is somehow
held together, thus attractive force exists between atons.
A solid is hard to compress which shows that if we try to
Push atoms still closer, some kind of repulsive force
results.
