    Study Notes

    Angular Measurement

    • A radian is a unit of angular measurement defined as the angle subtended at the center of a circle by an arc equal in length to the radius of the circle.

    Angular Displacement

    • Angular displacement is the angle through which an object rotates from its initial to its final position.

    Degree-Radian Relationship

    • There is a fixed relationship between degrees and radians: 360 degrees is equivalent to 2π radians.

    Direction of Rotational Motion

    • In rotational motion, counterclockwise motion is considered positive, while clockwise motion is considered negative.

    Angular Velocity

    • Angular velocity is the rate of change of angular displacement with respect to time, measured in radians per second (rad/s).
