A bowling ball at rest is in equilibrium. Is the ball in equilibrium when it moves at constant speed in a straight-line path?
A body moving in a circle with a constant speed is in rotational equilibrium.
a ball is attached to one end of a piece of string. you hold the other end of the string and whirl the ball in a circle around your hand (a) if the ball moves at a constant speed is it's linear momentum constant? (b) is it is angular momentum constant? why or why not??
