Rotation around a fixed axis the same mass and velocity of rotation. Like linear momentum, angular momentum is vector quantity, and its conservation implies that the direction of the spin axis tends to remain unchanged. For this reason, the spinning top remains upright whereas a stationary one falls over immediately. The angular momentum equation can be used to relate the moment of the resultant force on a body about an axis (sometimes called torque), and the rate of rotation about that axis. Torque and angular momentum are related according to just as F = "d"p/"dt" in linear dynamics. In the absence of an external torque,
Landscape of the Body it to us. It informs our understanding of the playwright we know best in terms of his masterpieces, 'Six Degrees of Separation' and 'House of Blue Leaves'. But 'Landscape of the Body' deserves better than it gets here." Landscape of the Body Landscape of the Body is a two-act play by John Guare, first performed in 1977. The play is episodic and non-linear, as it travels back and forth in time. The plot centers on a woman named Betty, whose son, Bert, was recently murdered and decapitated in lower Manhattan. The location of the first and last scenes are the
