Derive an expression for kinetic energy in rotation and establish the relation between rotational kinetic energy and angular momentum.

Answer»

Solution :Let a rigid body of moment of inertia I rotate with ANGULAR velocity`omega `
The angular momentum of a rigid body is,` L=I omega `
The rotational kin e TIC energy of the rigid body is,` KE= 1/21 omega^2`
By MULTIPLYING the numerator and denominator of the above EQUATION with I, we get a relation between L and KE as,
` Ke = 1/2(I^2omega ^2)/(I )= ।/2(( omega )^2)/(I)`
` KE = (L^2)/( 2l)`
