When the rigid body rotates the speed v i of the ith particle is v i r i different particles have different speeds and distances, but the same. This gives us the tools we need to apply energy considerations to systems with rotating parts. What effect would this have on the angular velocities. A body is said to undergo planar motion when all parts of the body move along paths equidistant from a fixed plane. When a rigid body with a fixed pivot point o, is acted upon by a force, there may be a rotational change in velocity of the rigid body.
