derive relation between angular acceleration and linear acceleration
Asked by singhparansh | 18 Dec, 2021, 05:15: PM

Let us consider a circular lemma as shown in fifure that rotates about an axis passing through centre of mass.
Let z-axis coincide with the axis of rotation so that lemma is in x-y plane.
At a point P , we see that tangential velocity vector
is mutually perpendicular to angular velocity vector


and radial position vector
.

If the lemma makes one complete rotation in T seconds , then linear displacement made by point P in tangential direction is ( 2π r )
Hence velocity v in tangential direction , v = ( 2π r ) / T
But angular velocity ω = 2π / T
Hence from above two expressions, we get , v = ω r
Since magnitude of velocity v in tangential direction is produt of magnitude of angular velocity and radial distance
and also direction of velocity v is mutually perpendicular to vector 

and vector
, then we get velocity vector
in terms of vector product as





Acceleration
= ( d
/ dt ) in tangential direction is determined by differentiating abvove expression .



since ( d
/ dt )= 0 , we get 


where
= ( d
/ dt ) is angular acceleration.


Hence by magnitude , a = α r is the relation between angular acceleration and acceleration in tangential direction .
