	Angular velocity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In physics angular velocity is the speed at which something rotates (its angular speed or angular frequency) together with the direction it rotates in.
		The magnitude is the angular speed, and the direction describes the axis of rotation.
		In the case of pure circular motion, the angular velocity is equal to linear velocity divided by the radius.

		Angular speed is defined in terms of radians.
		Thus, angular speed is independent of gear size as long as two different gears complete a single revolution in equal periods of time.
		In terms of linear speed, both gears (gear teeth) are moving at equal linear speeds (because it would be impossible for the driven gear to move any faster or slower than the driving gear).

	Angular_Diameter
		The angular size (or angular diameter) of an object is simply the angle between one side of the object and the other.
		To determine the angular size of an object, we will take advantage of the fact that two round or spherical objects can have the same angular diameter, even if they are at very different distances from the observer.
		Using the angular diameter you calculated in step 6, and the known distance to the Moon, calculate the liner diameter of the Moon as you did in Part II of this lab.

	An Exploration of Meteor Angular Speeds
		Figures 1 to 5 show the meteor angular speed, V_theta, plotted on the y-axis as a function of meteor-radiant angular distance, theta, on the x-axis, for four constant meteor angular altitudes (each shown as a separate curve): alt=0 deg (dash-dot), alt=30 deg (dash), alt=60 deg (dot), and alt=90 deg (solid).
		A rough estimate of the average meteor angular speed is then obtained by dividing the distance by the duration later during initial data reduction on paper.
		The meteor angular speed estimate is primarily used for meteor shower classification verification, using the relationships shown in Equations 1 & 2 and Figures 1-5.

	Rotational Dynamics
		To increase the angular speed you probably will apply a force to the rim, tangential to the rim, and in the direction of the instantaneous velocity of the section of the rim to which you apply the force.
		The angular acceleration of an object is proportional to the torque acting on the object.
		If a torque causes angular acceleration about one of the symmetry axes of an object, then the proportional constant is the moment of inertia of the object about the axes.

	Choosing Motors for RoboCup
		The maximum linear speed is determined by three parts of the drive system: the wheel size, the motor's angular speed for a given torque, and any gearing that may be present between the motor and the wheel.
		The average linear speed (v) of the translation is simply this distance divided by the time taken to travel it.
		If there are gears between the motor and the wheel, the angular speed of the wheel differs from that of the motor by a constant multiplier called the gear ratio which is the ratio of the number of teeth on the drive gear to the number of teeth on the driven gear.

		The angular momentum is the sum of the angular momenta for the individual particles about point B. Each has magnitude equal to its own momentum, mv, times the perpendicular component of the r-vector going from point B to the particle.
		The angular momentum of the nearer particle is clockwise (i.e., negative), and the angular momentum of the farther particle is counterclockwise (i.e., positive).
		In this case angular momentum would be conserved when the ball is pulled in to a tighter orbit, the force would do work when the direction of motion of the ball has a radial component, and the kinetic energy would increase.

		It is important to remember that all the constituent particles of a rigid body rotating around a fixed axis move by the same angle, angular speed, and angular acceleration, while their speed and radial and tangential accelerations depend on their distance r from the axis.
		Maximum angular acceleration can be achieved by applying the force as far away from the rotation axis as possible.
		Angular momentum is especially useful when dealing with rotational motion because, similarly to linear momentum, it is conserved when the net external torque is zero.

		The angular acceleration vector also has a direction component that can be defined in either of two senses: counterclockwise or clockwise.
