Animation of Falling Cat and Conservation of Angular Momentum - 0 views

    This is a great explanation of why they always land on their feet. Since we can't bring in live cats to demo this, what could we do? Perhaps we could get students to record them doing this at home with their cats and have them offer an explanation. They could slow the video and draw lines through the axis of rotation and study it more closely in class.

    One more great animation with a vector explanation as well. This one pulls in additional concepts that students should understand.
