Write the formula for rotational kinetic energy.
(N/A) The rotational kinetic energy $(K_{rot})$ of a rigid body rotating about a fixed axis is given by the formula:
$K_{rot} = \frac{1}{2} I \omega^2$
Where:
$I$ is the moment of inertia of the body about the axis of rotation.
$\omega$ is the angular velocity of the body.
$K_{rot} = \frac{1}{2} I \omega^2$
Where:
$I$ is the moment of inertia of the body about the axis of rotation.
$\omega$ is the angular velocity of the body.
