Important Concepts from Chapter 19 (Angular and Linear Momentum) covered here. You can also watch Overview of Rigid Body Momentum Chapter on MyMedia.

Look at work-energy with an Instantaneous centre of zero velocity. You can also watch Rigid Body Kinetics - Work and Energy on MyMedia.

A second set of examples looking at Rigid Body Work-Energy. You can also watch Rigid Bodies - Work Energy on MyMedia.

Some more standard examples looking at rigid body kinetics. You can also watch Kinetics - Rigid Bodies on MyMedia.

Often it is useful to look at problems where there is a point of no-slip and slip. This example looks at two cases to show the impact and help you see the need for careful thought about friction. You can also watch Threading the Spool on MyMedia.

More problems to get comfortable with FBDs and also a first step at looking at what could be next (computational modeling). You can also watch Lawnmover Man and Computational Complexity on MyMedia.
