Kinetic energy via angular momentum and angular velocity ======================================================== Kinetic energy of a body rotating around a fixed or instantaneous axis depends on its angular momentum and angular velocity. .. py:currentmodule:: symplyphysics.laws.dynamics.vector.kinetic_energy_via_angular_momentum_and_angular_velocity .. py:function:: kinetic_energy_law(angular_momentum_, angular_velocity_) Kinetic energy of a rotating body. **Notation:** #. :math:`\left(\vec a, \vec b \right)` (:code:`dot(a, b)`) is the dot product between vectors :math:`\vec a` and :math:`\vec b`. Law: :code:`K = 1/2 * dot(L, w)` Latex: :math:`K = \frac{1}{2} \left(\vec L, \vec \omega \right)` :param angular_momentum\_: angular momentum of the body. Symbol: :code:`L` Latex: :math:`\vec L` Dimension: *length* * *momentum* :param angular_velocity\_: angular velocity of the body. Symbol: :code:`w` Latex: :math:`\vec \omega` Dimension: *angle* / *time* :return: kinetic energy of the body Symbol: :code:`K` Dimension: *energy*
