In this lecture, Paul Hewitt introduces the concept of rotational inertia. He gives examples of objects with high, low, and variable rotational inertias. He continues with a discussion of conservation of angular momentum and finishes with examples of circular motion.
Lessons of Phyz advantages:
- A heavy font ensures high legibility even in dim lighting.
- Questions are designed to be answered while the video plays—quick, simple responses keep students engaged without requiring deep reflection that would take them out of the presentation.
- Question types are mixed: fill-in-the-blank, multiple choice, check lists, and short answer are common; in some cases, matching or sequencing.
- Certain moments in a video lesson merit undivided attention. No questions have been placed in those moments.
- "Play to the buzzer": Whenever possible, the last question in the set is answered during the last minutes (or seconds) of the video.
- I am a classroom teacher who has designed these resources for use with my students.
- If you find competing products online, by all means check them out. They may be cheaper; they may be free. None of them will be as professional, polished, or classroom-ready as this one.
The Google Docs files provided in this product are suitable for use online for remote instruction and make-up work and/or for printing and photocopying for in-person instruction. They are ready to use whichever way you need to use them.
