1. Choose an object to take a video . Attach the video to the email you use to submit your write up. [For your write up, you can take pictures of your handwritten work on paper, or you can type it up in Word or a similar word processor.] Note: the one thing it cannot be is a video of you or another person spinning in a chair or on a stool. It must be some other object or situation. If you have the means of rotating the object you used for lab 1, you can re-use that object.

1. Describe the situation you recorded and explain what has angular momentum in your recording.

1. Make a list of distances and masses you will need to calculate the Moment of Inertia (making sure to convert to meters and kilograms) either by measuring them directly, or if that is not possible, by writing down realistic estimates of the distances and masses involved.

1. Calculate the Moment of Inertia of the rotating object.

1. Calculate or estimate the angular velocity of your object. List your assumptions or measurements and show your calculations as to how you arrived at your conclusion.

1. Calculate the angular momentum of the object.
