Angular kinematics

A ball attached to a string and rotates in a circle. If it takes 1.00 s to complete one revolution, what is the angular velocity of the ball?

• 3.14 rad/s
• 6.28 rad/s
• 9.42 rad/s
• 12.6 rad/s

Units for angular velocity

• radians

• rad/s

• rad/s²

• m/s

A rod rotates about a pivot at its center with a known initial angular velocity and eventually comes to rest. What quantities could you measure to determine the angular acceleration of the rod?

• The time it takes the rod to stop turning

• The number of rotations the rod completes while coming to rest

• the friction between the rod and the axle it is mounted on

• the weight of the rod
