The experiment clearly demonstrated how different variables interact in terms of

performance in which the relationship towards variables rotates on a certain axis. Thus,
it clarifies the application of Newton’s Law for Rotating Body in which their mass
distribution, applied force, torque, rotational and translational acceleration, moment of
inertia, angular velocity, rotational kinetic energy, and rotation power are all terms used
to describe rotation.

In process A, different mass distributions were found with constant mass, radius, and
force were observed to have different results based on the 4 spheres that were
assigned from the rotational dynamics of the object. In process B, as the radius of a
particular mass distribution grows, so does its torque rises. Lastly, in process C, when
the force is applied by a particular mass distribution, it increases so does the torque
increases.

Rotational Dynamic is where a particular mass and r distance from the rotation axis The
moment of inertia of a particle is proportional to its mass, the larger the mass, the
greater the moment of inertia. When multiple torques apply on a rigid body rotating
around a fixed axis, the sum of the torques equals the moment of inertia multiplied by
the angular acceleration of inertia towards the findings of this experiment.

-To understand the application of the concept of the moment of inertia for rotating body.
-Learning the relationship between the torque and angular momentum.
 To determine the relationship between different variables when body rotates
around an axis.
 To investigate how Newton’s Law applies to rotating bodies
- Newton’s Law, when applied to rotational motion states that the torque equals
the product of the moment of inertia and the angular acceleration. The
moment of inertia of an object is a measure of its resistance to angular
acceleration. Because of its rotational inertia, a torque is needed to change
the angular velocity of an object, so if there is no net torque acting on a
object, angular velocity will not change. Moreover, moving the masses farther
to the center or increasing the radius will increase the moment of inertia,
which decreases the angular acceleration as seen in set B.
