Work-Energy (WE) for Rigid Bodies
Rigid bodies in general plane motion store kinetic energy in
both translation AND rotation, so they have two KE terms.

Translation T = 2 mvG2 Examples: Bench grinder
Hand-held grinder
Spin awhile after turned off
(neglecting tire rotation) due to stored KE.
Examples of general plane motion
Bar sliding down wall
