The direction of the angular velocity vector is along
Options
- Athe tangent to the circular path
- Bthe inward radius
- Cthe outward radius
- Dthe axis of rotation
Correct answer
D. the axis of rotation
Step-by-step solution
v (=r ). (v ) is the tangential. If (r ) is in the (X Y ) plane and (v ) is also in this plane, ( ) is in the (Z ) direction. + or - is decided by whether the particle is rotating in the anticlockwise direction or clockwise direction.
