An airliner arrives at the terminal, and the pilot shuts down the engines. The initial angular velocity of the fan blades is 1530.1 rad/s, and it takes 160.4 seconds for the blades to come to rest. What is the angular displacement of the blades?
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.
