Today we discuss the topic of rotational motion! It is a very important facet of classical mechanics when you study dynamics. There are countless parallels to translational motion that help us understand the "spinning" so well.   Instagram: @math.physics.podcast Tiktok: @math.physics.podcast Email: math.physics.podcast@gmail.com Twitter: @MathPhysPod   HelloFresh: Link: https://hellofresh-ca.o5kg.net/c/2544961/791027/7893 Code: HFAFF80 Offer: $80 Discount ($50 - $20 - $10) Including Free Shipping on First Box!

But obviously, it's not as easy as you might think; these have been unsolved for a long time and will probably remain unsolved until the next millenium. Unless you're up to the task...   Instagram: @math.physics.podcast Tiktok: @math.physics.podcast Email: math.physics.podcast@gmail.com Twitter: @MathPhysPod   Resources: https://www.claymath.org/
