Linear acceleration is determined by the ratio of the net force on an object to the mass of the object. based on this exploration, do you think there is a similar ratio that determines the angular acceleration of a rotating object?

Recalling for motion of a body in one spatial dimension:

F = ma

F is the net force acting on the body

m is the body's mass

a is the body's acceleration

We have a very similar equation describing rotational motion:

τ = Iα

τ is the net torque (rotation force) acting on the body

I is the body's moment of inertia (around an arbitrary point), also known as rotational inertia

α is the body's angular acceleration

Rearranging the above equation gives a formula for α:

α = τ/I

Oh for sure. Yes. Uh huh. You bet. Definitely. There's no doubt in my mind.

The angular acceleration of a rotating object is determined by the ratio of the net torque on the object to the object's moment of inertia.

when heated, the valance electrons increased their speed and transferred the heat from electron to electron.   i just took the test.
