How to use these flashcards

Active recall is the most effective way to study. Look at the question, try to answer out loud before tapping to flip. If you got it wrong, mentally note it and come back to it.

The most important formulas to memorize for Unit 6 are K_rot = ½Iω², L = Iω, and L_i = L_f (no external torque). Most problems flow from one of these.
