Converting Between Angular & Linear Motion

Converting Between Angular & Linear Motion

This video covers what to do when linear quantities like velocity (m/s) are in the same problem as angular quantities (ω, radians, rad/sec, etc). This happens all the time in problems about cars and bikes, where they'll give you the distance driven or how fast the car is going and then ask you to figure out how fast the wheels are spinning. Also a cool problem: giving you the length (linear) of a string wrapped around a shaft (angular motion).
