If the angular velocity of a link in a mechanism is zero, does this imply that the angular acceleration of that link is also zero? The short answer to that question is NO. If ω(t) represents the ...

Really. If you are moving in a straight line, you could think of this as a non-constant angular velocity. Also, you can think of the moment of inertia of the person as changing since the person is ...

Consider the rotor of a gyroscope. The rotor is attached to a frame that is rotating about a fixed vertical axes with a constant rate of ω 1, and with the rotor rotating relative to that frame at a ...
