Concept explainers
A thin rod of mass 0.800 kg and length 0.700 m has a fixed pivot at one end. The rod is held horizontally and released from rest. The rod swings downward and back up again like a pendulum. The rotational inertia of a thin rod rotating about one end is I=13ML2. Disregard friction and air resistance.angular acceleration of the rod just as it is released.
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 .
