SURNAME, FIRST NAME
Instruction: Provide the correct answer to each of the following numbers.
1. Define the sector of a circle.
- also known as circle sector or disk sector, is the portion of a disk (a closed region bounded by a circle)
enclosed by two radii and an arc, where the smaller area is known as the minor sector and the larger being the
major sector.

2. What is an arc length?

- refers to the distance between two points along a curve’s section.

3. What is a radian?
- a unit of plane angular measurement that is equal to the angle at the center of a circle subtended by and whose
length equals the radius or whose length equals the radius or approximately 57.3 degrees.
4. How many radians in a circumference?
- There are 6.28 Radians in a circumference.
5. What is angular displacement? Write its formula and its unit of measurement.
- It is defined as “the angle in radians (degrees, revolutions) through which a point or line has been rotated in a
specified sense about a specified axis”. It is the angle of the movement of a body in a circular path.
Formula: θ=s/r
Where: θ is the angular displacement, s is the distance travelled by the body, and r is the radius of the circle
along which it is moving. The unit of Angular Displacement is Radian or Degrees
6. What is angular velocity? Write its formula and its unit of measurement.
- the rate of velocity at which an object or particle is rotating around a center or a specific point in a given time.
It is also known as rotational velocity and is measured in angle per unit time or radians per second (rad/s)
Formula:

Where ω is the angular velocity, θ is the angular displacement, and t is the change in time t.
The units for angular velocity are radians per second (rad/s)

7. What is angular acceleration? Write its formula and its unit of measurement.
- defined as the time rate of change of angular velocity. It is also known as rotational acceleration and is usually
expressed in radians per second per second.
Formula: α=ΔωΔt α = Δ ω Δ t , where Δω is the change in angular velocity and Δt is the change in time.
The units of angular acceleration are (rad/s)/s, or rad/s2.

8. How do you convert the angular displacement into linear displacement?

-to convert between radians and linear units we can use the formula S = r Θ where S is the arclength in any
linear distance unit, r is the radius in the same linear distance unit, and Θ is the angular displacement in radians.

9. How do you convert the angular velocity into linear velocity?

-You can convert an angular velocity (w) into linear velocity (v) by multiplying it by the radius (r), so v = rw.

10. How do you convert the angular acceleration into linear acceleration?
- The tangential acceleration formula is at=rα a t = r α , where α is the angular acceleration, and r is the radius
of the circle. It is derived from the fact that arc length is the radius of the circle multiplied by the angle in
radians.
