An astronaut working with many tools some distance away from a spacecraft is stranded when the "maneuvering unit" malfunctions. How can the astronaut return to the spacecraft by sacrificing some of the tools? (Note: the maneuvering unit is connected to the astronaut's spacesuit and is not removable)
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.
