How fase is expressed?

Assuming you mean "phase", it is usually expressed in angular units - degrees, or radians.


Can uniform angular velocity has acceleration?

No, uniform angular velocity means no angular acceleration.


Angular acceleration is it scalar or vector?

Angular acceleration is a vector.


What is angular acceleration?

Angular acceleration is the trate of change of angular velocity, often represented by the letter alpha.


Is angular speed the same as angular acceleration?

No. Acceleration and speed are related in the same way irrespective of being linear or angular. Acceleration is rate of change of speed.


Is there any difference between angular acceleration and radial acceleration?

Yes. A ngular acceleration is to do with something turning. Radial acceleration is linear acceleration perpendicular to the angular acceleration.


What is the acceleration of gravity expressed in English units?

32.2 feet per second2, on earth


Derive equation between angular and linear acceleration?

Since angular acceleration is in radians per second squared, which is change in angular speed over time, we know that α=ω/t, where α is angular acceleration, ω is angular speed, and t is time (assuming α is constant.)ω is measured in radians per second. If me multiply ω by r, which is the radius of the circle the object is acceleration around, we get ωr, which has units of (radians*radius)/second. Since the angle in radians times the radius gives the distance, these units are equivalent to meters/second, so ωr = v.Therefore, α=(v/r)/t=v/rt.Acceleration (a) is v/t, so α=(v/t)(1/r)=a/r.The equation would then be:α=a/r, or a=rα (Where α is angular acceleration, a is acceleration, and r is the radius.)


If a net torque is applied to an object that object will experience which of the following a constant angular speed angular acceleration or an increasing moment of inertia?

angular acceleration


Define angular impulse?

Angular impulse is defined as the rate-of-change of the angular acceleration.


How do you find out the direction of angular accelaration?

The direction of angular acceleration comes from whether the angular speed of the object is clockwise or counterclockwise and whether it is speeding up or slowing down.The direction of the angular acceleration will be positive if the angular velocity is counterclockwise and the object's rotation is speeding up or if the angular velocity is clockwise and the object's rotation is slowing downThe direction of the angular acceleration will be negative if the angular velocity is clockwise and the object's rotation is speeding up or if the angular velocity is counterclockwise and the object's rotation is slowing downThe angular acceleration will not have a direction if the object's angular velocity is constant
