The ability of the human eye to rapidly rotate was studied using contact lenses fitted with accelerometers. While a subject, whose eyeball has radius 1.25 cm, watches a moving object her eyeball rotates through 20.0° in a time interval of 69.6 ms.
a. What is the magnitude of the average angular velocity of the eye? asnwer in rad/s
b. Assume that the eye starts at rest, rotates with a constant angular acceleration during the first half of the interval, and then the rotation slows with a constant angular acceleration during the second half until it comes to rest. What is the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the eye? answer in rad/s^2
c. What tangential acceleration would the contact-lens accelerometers record in this case? answer in m/s^2
Definition Definition Rate of change of angular velocity. Angular acceleration indicates how fast the angular velocity changes over time. It is a vector quantity and has both magnitude and direction. Magnitude is represented by the length of the vector and direction is represented by the right-hand thumb rule. An angular acceleration vector will be always perpendicular to the plane of rotation. Angular acceleration is generally denoted by the Greek letter α and its SI unit is rad/s 2 .
