Angular Displacement, Velocity and Acceleration
1 / 36
Angular displacement is defined as:
Reasoning: Angular displacement describes the angle through which an object rotates about a fixed axis.
2 / 36
The SI unit of angular displacement is:
Reasoning: Radian is the $\mathbf{SI}$ unit of angular displacement.
3 / 36
The relationship between arc length and angular displacement is:
Reasoning: Arc length is equal to radius multiplied by angular displacement in radians.
4 / 36
A wheel of radius $\mathbf{2\ m}$ rotates through an angle of $\mathbf{3\ rad}$. The distance travelled by a point on its edge is:
Reasoning: $\mathbf{S = r\theta}\mathbf{= 2 \times 3 = 6\ m}$
5 / 36
If a point moves through an arc length equal to the radius of a circle, its angular displacement is:
Reasoning: $\mathbf{\theta}\mathbf{=}$ $\frac{\mathbf{S}}{\mathbf{r}}\mathbf{=}\frac{\mathbf{r}}{\mathbf{r}}\mathbf{= 1\ rad}$
6 / 36
A complete revolution corresponds to an angular displacement of:
Reasoning: One complete circle equals $\mathbf{360}^{\mathbf{o}}\mathbf{= 2\pi}$ radians.
7 / 36
A rotating fan completes half a revolution. Its angular displacement is:
Reasoning: Half revolution $\mathbf{=}\mathbf{180}^{\mathbf{o}}\mathbf{= \pi}$ radians
8 / 36
Two points on the same rotating disc have the same:
Reasoning: All points of a rigid rotating body rotate through the same angle.
9 / 36
Angular velocity is defined as:
Reasoning: Angular velocity measures how quickly angular displacement changes.
10 / 36
The formula for angular velocity is:
Reasoning: Angular velocity $\mathbf{=}$ angular displacement/time.
11 / 36
The SI unit of angular velocity is:
Reasoning: Angular velocity is measured in radians per second.
12 / 36
A wheel rotates through $\mathbf{10}$ radians in $\mathbf{5}$ seconds. Its angular velocity is:
Reasoning: $\mathbf{\omega}\mathbf{=}$ $\frac{\mathbf{\theta}}{\mathbf{t}}\mathbf{=}\frac{\mathbf{10}}{\mathbf{5}}\mathbf{= 2\ ra}\mathbf{d/s}$
13 / 36
The linear velocity of a point on a rotating body is related to angular velocity by:
Reasoning: Linear speed increases with radius and angular velocity.
14 / 36
A point farther from the axis of rotation has:
Reasoning: Since $\mathbf{v = r\omega}$, larger radius gives greater linear velocity.
15 / 36
Two points on a rotating disc have equal angular velocity because:
Reasoning: A rigid body rotates through the same angle in the same time.
16 / 36
A wheel completes one revolution in $\mathbf{4}$ seconds. Its angular velocity is:
Reasoning: $\mathbf{\omega}\mathbf{=}$ $\frac{\mathbf{2}\mathbf{\pi}}{\mathbf{T}}\mathbf{=}\frac{\mathbf{2}\mathbf{\pi}}{\mathbf{4}}\mathbf{=}\frac{\mathbf{\pi}}{\mathbf{2}}$
17 / 36
The time taken for one complete revolution is called:
Reasoning: Period $\mathbf{(T)}$ is the time for one complete rotation.
18 / 36
Frequency and period are related by:
Reasoning: Frequency is the number of rotations per second. This means that frequency is the reciprocal of the period.
19 / 36
Angular acceleration is:
Reasoning: Angular acceleration shows how quickly angular velocity changes.
20 / 36
If the period of rotation decreases, angular velocity:
Reasoning: $\mathbf{\omega}\mathbf{=}$ $\frac{\mathbf{2}\mathbf{\pi}}{\mathbf{T}}$, so smaller $\mathbf{T}$ means larger angular velocity.
21 / 36
The SI unit of angular acceleration is:
Reasoning: Angular acceleration is change in angular velocity per second.
22 / 36
The formula for angular acceleration is:
Reasoning: Angular acceleration is the rate of change of angular velocity.
23 / 36
A fan increases angular velocity from $\mathbf{5\ rad/s}$ to $\mathbf{15\ rad/s}$ in $\mathbf{5}$ seconds. Its angular acceleration is:
Reasoning: $\mathbf{\alpha}\mathbf{=}$ $\frac{\mathbf{15\ - \ 5}}{\mathbf{5}}\mathbf{= 2\ rad/}\mathbf{s}^{\mathbf{2}}$
24 / 36
Centripetal acceleration is directed:
Reasoning: Centripetal acceleration always points toward the center of circular motion.
25 / 36
The formula for centripetal acceleration is:
Reasoning: Centripetal acceleration depends on velocity squared and radius.
26 / 36
If velocity of an object in circular motion doubles, centripetal acceleration becomes:
Reasoning: $\mathbf{a}\mathbf{=}$ $\frac{\mathbf{v}^{\mathbf{2}}}{\mathbf{r}}$ ; Doubling velocity makes acceleration four times.
27 / 36
If radius of circular motion increases while velocity remains constant, centripetal acceleration:
Reasoning: $\mathbf{a}\mathbf{=}$ $\frac{\mathbf{v}^{\mathbf{2}}}{\mathbf{r}}$, so larger radius reduces acceleration.
28 / 36
A car moving faster on a circular track requires:
Reasoning: Centripetal acceleration increases with square of velocity.
29 / 36
The relation between centripetal acceleration and angular velocity is:
Reasoning: Since $\mathbf{v}\mathbf{=}\mathbf{r\omega}$, substituting into $\mathbf{a}\mathbf{=}\mathbf{v}^{\mathbf{2}}\mathbf{/}\mathbf{r}$ gives $\mathbf{a}\mathbf{=}\mathbf{r}\mathbf{\omega}^{\mathbf{2}}$.
30 / 36
A wheel rotates with angular velocity $\mathbf{4\ rad/s}$ and radius $\mathbf{2\ m}$. Centripetal acceleration is:
Reasoning: $\mathbf{a}\mathbf{=}\mathbf{r}\mathbf{\omega}^{\mathbf{2}}\mathbf{= 2(4}\mathbf{)}^{\mathbf{2}}\mathbf{= 32\ m/}\mathbf{s}^{\mathbf{2}}$
31 / 36
A point on the rim of a wheel has radius $\mathbf{0.5\ m}$ and angular velocity $\mathbf{10\ rad/s}$. Its linear velocity is:
Reasoning: $\mathbf{v}\mathbf{=}\mathbf{r\omega}\mathbf{= 0.5}\left( \mathbf{10} \right)\mathbf{= 5\ m/s}$
32 / 36
A body completes $\mathbf{5}$ revolutions per second. Its angular velocity is:
Reasoning: $\mathbf{\omega}\mathbf{= 2}\mathbf{\pi f = 2}\mathbf{\pi(5) = 10}\mathbf{\pi}$
33 / 36
Two points on a rotating disc have the same angular velocity but different linear velocities because they have different:
Reasoning: Linear velocity depends on radius: $\mathbf{v}\mathbf{=}\mathbf{r\omega}$
34 / 36
If angular velocity is constant, angular acceleration is:
Reasoning: No change in angular velocity means zero angular acceleration.
35 / 36
A satellite moving in circular orbit has acceleration because:
Reasoning: Acceleration exists due to continuous change in direction of velocity.

Reasoning: In uniform circular motion, angular velocity remains constant.
