Phrases 34
- angular momentumThe vector product that describes the rotary inertia of a system about an axis and is conserved in a closed system. For an isolated rigid body, it is a measure of the extent to which an object will continue to rotate in the absence of an …
- angular velocityThe angle turned, per unit time, by a body rotating about an axis; the rate of rotation through an angle.
- angular defectThe amount by which the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is less than 180° (π radians); the amount by which the sum of the internal angles of a polygon is less than what would be expected on the Euclidean plane.
- angular accelerationThe rate of change of angular velocity, often represented by α.
- angular frequencyA scalar measure of rate of rotation.
- angular milA unit of angular measurement equal to 1/6400 of a complete circle. At 1000 metres one mil subtends about one metre (~0,98 m). Also 1/6000 and 1/6300 are used in other countries.
- angular unconformityA type of unconformity in which a sedimentary stratum is deposited on top of another stratum that has been significantly tilted and subsequently eroded flat.
- angular apertureThe apparent diameter of a lens' aperture as seen from the focal point.
- angular distanceThe measure of the angle between the orientation of two straight lines, rays, or vectors in three-dimensional space.
- angular harpSynonym of angle harp: A type of harp where the neck runs at an angle over the resonator.
- angular motionMotion regarded as measured by the increase of the angle made with some standard direction by a line drawn from the moving object to a fixed point.
- angular resolutionThe minimum angular spacing of two objects at which an instrument, such as a radar system or telescope, can distinguish the objects as different.
- angular velocitiesplural of angular velocity: The angle turned, per unit time, by a body rotating about an axis; the rate of rotation through an angle.
