Whirling

Whirling, also known as spinning or rotational motion, occurs when an object rotates around a central axis. This can involve objects like a top spinning or planets orbiting stars. The key idea is that the object maintains its rotational motion due to inertia, and the axis of rotation remains relatively stable unless influenced by external forces. Whirling motions are governed by physical principles such as angular momentum and torque. Understanding these principles helps explain natural phenomena and informs engineering designs, from gyroscopes to turbines, where controlled rotational motion is essential.
