Angular velocity irrespective of axis of rotation?

AI Thread Summary
Angular velocity for a two-dimensional laminar object, such as a rod, remains consistent across all axes of rotation perpendicular to its plane due to the uniform distribution of angular acceleration. For a point at distance x from the rotation axis, the tangential velocity is proportional to the distance and angular acceleration, expressed as vx = xα. This relationship holds true for points at distances 2x and 3x, where v2x = 2xα and v3x = 3xα, respectively. Consequently, the relative angular acceleration remains constant across these points. This principle illustrates the uniformity of angular velocity in two-dimensional objects regardless of the axis of rotation.

How exactly can the angular velocity of a 2 dimensional laminar object be the same with respect to all axes of rotation perpendicular to its plane ?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
try to do it for a rod and i applies same for others

now for this rod ____________ (anticlockwise rotation) α angular acceleration
o

with o point on it

at x dist from o
vx = xα

at 2x dist from o
v2x = 2xα

at 3x dist from o
v3x = 3xα





now relative to x dist
αrel = α
for both points 2x and 3x

rest you must do
 
Thread 'Is 'Velocity of Transport' a Recognized Term in English Mechanics Literature?'
Here are two fragments from Banach's monograph in Mechanics I have never seen the term <<velocity of transport>> in English texts. Actually I have never seen this term being named somehow in English. This term has a name in Russian books. I looked through the original Banach's text in Polish and there is a Polish name for this term. It is a little bit surprising that the Polish name differs from the Russian one and also differs from this English translation. My question is: Is there...
This has been discussed many times on PF, and will likely come up again, so the video might come handy.

Hi there, im studying nanoscience at the university in Basel. Today I looked at the topic of intertial and non-inertial reference frames and the existence of fictitious forces. I understand that you call forces real in physics if they appear in interplay. Meaning that a force is real when there is the "actio" partner to the "reactio" partner. If this condition is not satisfied the force is not real. I also understand that if you specifically look at non-inertial reference frames you can...
