An Amusement park merry-go-round at its constant operational speed makes one complete rotation in 45 s. Two children are on horses, one at 3.0 m from the center of the ride and the other farther out, 6.0 m from the center. What are; what is the period of the merry-go-round? the frequency of the merry-go-round? the angular speed
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.
