WARD."Help Me Understand 30° Angle Between W and Radial Axis

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on understanding the 30° angle between the W force and the radial axis in a physics context. The user expresses confusion regarding the relationship between the angle θ, which is given as 5/3π radians, and the specified 30° angle. The diagram linked in the discussion is crucial for visualizing the forces involved. Clarification is needed on how these angles interact and the implications for force direction.

PREREQUISITES
  • Basic understanding of trigonometry and angles
  • Familiarity with force vectors in physics
  • Knowledge of radians and degrees conversion
  • Ability to interpret diagrams related to physics problems
NEXT STEPS
  • Study the relationship between radians and degrees in trigonometry
  • Learn about vector components and how to resolve forces
  • Review the concept of angular displacement in physics
  • Examine examples of force diagrams to understand angle relationships
USEFUL FOR

Students studying physics, particularly those focusing on mechanics, as well as educators seeking to clarify concepts related to angles and force vectors.

1. Ok here is a diagram I am HAVE NO IDEA HOW THE 30 DEGREES between the W force came and the radial axis!

CAN sOMEONE SHOW ME or EXPLAIN PLZZz

I suck at angles!

also it says when theta is 5/3 PIE not sure if that means the axis will be at that angle :S
 
wasn't the 30` angle already given?!
