To calculate the angular displacement, you will need to use the formula: θ = s/r, where θ is the angular displacement, s is the arc length, and r is the radius. In this case, s would be the length of the portion of the CD that has moved, and r is given as 6.0 cm.
The unit of measurement for angular displacement is radians (rad) or degrees (°). Radians are the preferred unit for scientific calculations, while degrees are more commonly used in everyday situations.
Yes, the angular displacement can be negative. This indicates that the object has rotated in the clockwise direction. A positive angular displacement indicates a counterclockwise rotation.
The angular displacement of a CD is a measure of the rotation of the CD around its center, while the linear displacement is a measure of the distance the CD has moved in a straight line. In other words, the angular displacement tells you how much the CD has turned, while the linear displacement tells you how far it has traveled.
Angular displacement and angular velocity are related by the formula: ω = Δθ/Δt, where ω is the angular velocity, Δθ is the change in angular displacement, and Δt is the change in time. In other words, angular velocity is the rate at which the angular displacement is changing over time.
