What is the key difference between rotation and revolution?

Rotation occurs around an internal axis, while revolution occurs around an external axis.

Revolution happens only in space, while rotation happens on Earth.

Rotation and revolution are the same type of motion.

Rotation occurs around an external axis, while revolution occurs around an internal axis.

Which of the following best describes torque?

A twist that causes an object to rotate.

A force that moves an object in a straight line.

A measure of the speed of a spinning object.

A type of friction that slows down rotation.

Why is it easier to open a door by pushing on the handle rather than near the hinges?

The handle is farther from the pivot point, increasing torque.

The hinges are designed to resist force.

The handle is closer to the pivot point.

What is the final step in the propulsion process of a car?

The tire's tangential speed grips the road and pushes the car forward.

The engine applies torque to the axle.

The wheel starts spinning due to rotational motion.

The car's engine stops applying torque.

The tangential velocity does what as you get farther from the center of a circle

Depends on the mass of the object
