This content explains how to calculate the kinetic energy of a rotating body, introducing the concept of rotational inertia (also known as moment of inertia). It clarifies that rotational inertia depends on both the mass and its distribution relative to the axis of rotation, and demonstrates its calculation for continuous objects using integration and the parallel-axis theorem.
