• Test overhead projector w/pen and paper between 8:00 and 9:00 AM.

•  video  - Moment of Inertia Wheel

•  video  - Moment of Inertia Wheel

•  video  - Vector Nature of Angular Momentum
  ( Is it possible to use a rotating platform instead of a stool, so the demo looks as close as possible to the below cartoon from the textbook? https://i.imgur.com/pIn6Ui6.jpg )

•  video  - The Falling Rigid Body
•  video  - Vector Nature of Angular Momentum
  (Only need dumb bells and rotating platform. Sorry for the last-minute notice!)
•  video  - Precession of Bicycle Wheel Under Gravity Force
  (I don't need the ceiling hook; just the bicycle wheel to demonstrate what happens when you try to "raise up" a horizontal spinning object.)

• Rotational Inertia Rods
  (Hi Al, Again, sorry to drop this so last-minute. I am doing a review for a midterm tomorrow and I had a lot of last minute requests for more demos throughout yesterday and today. No sweat if you can't get them ready in time.)
