Często spotykane błędy i nieporozumienia
Sometimes people forget that objects can have both rotational kinetic energy and translational (linear) kinetic energy. For example, a ball that is dropped only has translational kinetic energy. However, a ball that rolls down a ramp rotates as it travels downward. The ball has rotational kinetic energy from the rotation about its axis and translational kinetic energy from its translational motion.
