TL;DR
I am looking for a unified expression for energy in rotating systems
Hello,
I am wondering if anyone can give me a hand.
I am looking for a unified expression for energy in rotating systems or wondering if one even exists.
Any help or equations you wish to share about the topic would be great.
Sorry I am quite new to physics.

Thanks
