Ah, that explains your posting, been trying to drink someone under the
table???

This is no chat group for bean counters.


Posted from sci.energy newsgroup.

Ah so typical. You snipped the SCIENCE textbook references about the ENERGY involved in rotating objects. Probably because they show that you were wrong and don't know much about SCIENCE or ENERGY.

Here, I'll put them back one more time in the hope you might learn to read a book or two about SCIENCE and ENERGY before posting your nonsense


Try...

"Applied Physics, 2nd Edition" 1978 Tippens, Paul E, McGraw-Hill
Pages 156-159

My daughter is currently using...

"College Physics, fifth edition", 2003, Wilson and Buffa, Prentice Hall.
Page 274 - 278


Or maybe just a high-school textbook would be more your speed....
"Physics, 2nd Edition" 1965 , D.C. Heath and Company, Boston

Since you can't be bothered with simple physics textbooks, I'm sure if I
were to derive the formula directly (requires calculus), it would also go
right over your head.


And NO, I will NOT take wikipedia as as reference.

Who cares what YOU will 'take'. Just shows your closed-minded ignorance.
