Inertia Wands and Two Students

Description
Students twirl equal mass wands, one with the mass at the ends and the other with the mass at the middle. The wand with the mass at the ends has a larger moment of inertia and is harder to twirl, demonstrating how mass distribution affects rotational inertia. This experiment helps visualize how the placement of mass impacts the ease of rotation and angular acceleration.
