The small blue flywheel is rotating at a constant angular velocity of w1, the base wheel is rotating at a constant angular velocity of w2.
The small blue flywheel is rotating at a constant angular velocity of w1, the base wheel is rotating at a constant angular velocity of w2.
What is the angular momentum of the complete system?
Is the angular momentum of the complete system a funtion of time? In other words, does it require external torque to keep it going?
Would the angular momentum be constant if w1= w2?
These pages contain examples to illustrate the principles involved, for an discussion of the theory about angular momentum see this page.
