Classical Mechanics | 5.6: Angular Velocity and Acceleration as Vectors
Full course — free exercises, Feynman reviews, and AI-graded feedback: https://ludium.ai/courses/classical-m... Spinning seems to have no direction, since a wheel turns in a flat plane. This video shows that angular velocity and angular acceleration really are vectors pointing along the rotation axis, fixes their sign with the right-hand rule, and rebuilds ordinary velocity and acceleration through the cross product. Key concepts covered: Right-handed cylindrical coordinates and the rotation axis Angular velocity as a vector along the z-axis The right-hand rule and the sign of the rotation Velocity as the cross product of angular velocity with position Angular acceleration, and recovering motion by integration ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SOURCE MATERIALS The source materials for this video are from https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/8-01sc-cl...
