Abstract:This study developed a teaching material that makes the conservation of angular momentum, which students find very difficult, more concrete. The fact that angular momentum is a vector concept, the direction of the vector and the importance of this vector direction in angular momentum conservation are visualized. The teaching material consists of a table mounted on a freely rotating shaft, two electric motors mutually connected to the table, and a speed adjuster circuit used to change the rotation speeds of the… Show more
