Angular displacement is measured in

Correct answer: D. All

  • A. Degree
  • B. Revolutions
  • C. Radians
  • D. All

Explanation

Angular displacement can be measured in:a. Degrees (°): A unit of measurement for angles, where 360° represents a full circle.b. Revolutions: A complete rotation or cycle, often used to describe rotational motion.c. Radians (rad): A unit of measurement for angles, defined as the angle subtended at the center of a circle by an arc equal in length to the radius of the circle. 2π radians represent a full circle.

About Angular Displacement

Angular displacement measures the change in a body’s angular position and is expressed in radians or degrees, with anticlockwise and clockwise directions assigned signs. It connects to arc length, angular velocity and angular acceleration, and must be distinguished from ordinary linear displacement in rotational motion.
