Question

A pendulum is depicted in several states. In state A, the mass is traveling back down to the bottom and is in between the bottom and the max height. In state B, the mass is at its max height and has a speed of zero. In state C the ball is at its lowest position.

What statement about the magnitude of the mass's angular acceleration is true? (one answer)

A- It is zero in all cases

B- It is maximum in case C

C- It is equal in all cases, but it is non-zero

D-It cant be determined

E-It is maximum in case A

F-It is maximum in case B

Definition Definition Rate of change of angular velocity. Angular acceleration indicates how fast the angular velocity changes over time. It is a vector quantity and has both magnitude and direction. Magnitude is represented by the length of the vector and direction is represented by the right-hand thumb rule. An angular acceleration vector will be always perpendicular to the plane of rotation. Angular acceleration is generally denoted by the Greek letter α and its SI unit is rad/s 2 .
