Ask any engineer what the velocity of a point on a rigid body is, and they will correctly say that it's the time rate of change of a linear position vector. Ask any engineer what angular velocity is, ...

If the angular velocity of a link in a mechanism is zero, does this imply that the angular acceleration of that link is also zero? The short answer to that question is NO. If ω(t) represents the ...

Earth is steadily spinning like a top, even if we can't see, touch, hear or feel it. So, what would happen if Earth were to abruptly stop rotating? If the spinning were to stop, the angular momentum ...
