Three solid objects – a large wooden ball, a small steel ball, and a large steel ball – are placed on a ramp. If air resistance is not a factor, which objects rolls to the bottom of the ramp first? a) the large wooden ball b) the small steel ball c) the large steel ball d) they all reach the bottom simultaneously
Angular speed, acceleration and displacement
Angular acceleration is defined as the rate of change in angular velocity with respect to time. It has both magnitude and direction. So, it is a vector quantity.
Angular Position
Before diving into angular position, one should understand the basics of position and its importance along with usage in day-to-day life. When one talks of position, it’s always relative with respect to some other object. For example, position of earth with respect to sun, position of school with respect to house, etc. Angular position is the rotational analogue of linear position.
