Angular velocity irrespective of axis of rotation?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on the concept of angular velocity in a two-dimensional laminar object, specifically a rod, and how it remains consistent across all axes of rotation that are perpendicular to its plane. The relationship between angular acceleration (α) and linear velocity (v) is established, demonstrating that for a point at a distance x from the rotation axis, the linear velocity is given by vx = xα. This relationship holds true for points at distances 2x and 3x, confirming that angular acceleration remains constant across these points.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of angular velocity and angular acceleration
  • Familiarity with two-dimensional motion concepts
  • Basic knowledge of linear velocity equations

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
