This lecture covers the kinematics and dynamics of rigid bodies, including concepts such as Euler angles, Tait-Bryan angles, velocity and acceleration, and rolling without slipping. The instructor discusses the transfer theorems of angular momentum and force, as well as the inertia tensor and Euler's equations. Various experiments with gyroscopes and spinning discs are also explored.
