Angular displacement is defined as the angle between initial and final radius vector of some arbitrary point on an object undergoing rotation. I’ve seen that some problems include angular displacement bigger than 2 ##\pi## radians. Also, I would note this example:
Let us start with definition...
In the solution, the term Lcm and Icm is used. Explain the meaning of these terms? I think cm stands for centre of mass. why that is used in the subscript?does the term angular momentum from the centre of mass of the sphere makes sense? Is the term Lcm and Icm stand for angular momentum of the...
My line of thinking is as follows:
\omega_{PQ} = \frac{v_{\perp}}{\ell} = \frac v\ell \frac{\sqrt3}{2}
Similarly for rod ##QR##
\omega_{QR} = \frac{v_{\perp}}{\ell} = \frac v\ell \frac{\sqrt3}{2}
Is my reasoning correct?
