Question

A rigid rod of length L rotates about an axis perpendicular to the rod, with one end of the rod fixed to the axis. Which of the following must always be equal at all points on the rod?
1. Angular position.
2. Angular velocity.
3. Angular acceleration.
4. Tangential acceleration.
A. 1 and 2.
B. 1, 2 and 4.
C. 1 and 3.
D. 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Answer 1

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The Angular Position: The angular position is also called the angular displacement, and it is the angle through which a point revolves around the centre line that has been rotated in a particular manner about a given axis.

The Angular Velocity: The angular velocity of an object is the measure of the speed, or say, how fast an object rotates at one point with respect to a point.

The Angular Acceleration: This is very simple as it's a derivative of angular velocity. They both share the same relationship velocity and acceleration share. Angular acceleration is the rate of change of angular velocity.
