Of course, that's not the complete dynamical information,
-
because it also depends on how fast it's rotating.
-
But to simply say the analog of where the body is
-
in one dimension is this angle θ.
-
So, what we are going to set up,
-
you'll find is an analogy between one dimensional translation
-
and two dimensional rotations.
-
You'll find the analogy is very helpful.
-
So, I'm going to use a piece of the blackboard
-
where I'll keep drawing that analogy.
-
I do this because

the number of things you have to remember will be reduced
