      The familiar linear vector quantities such as velocity and momentum have analogous angular quantities used to describe circular motion.

      The angle of rotation is a measurement of the amount (the angle) that a figure is rotated about a fixed point— often the center of a circle.

      The rotational angle is a measure of how far an object rotates, and angular velocity measures how fast it rotates.

      The direction of angular quantities, such as angular velocity and angular momentum, is determined by using the right hand rule.

The angular velocity of a rotating body about a fixed axis is defined as ω(rad/s), the rotational rate of the body in radians per second. If the system’s angular velocity is not constant, then the system has an angular acceleration. The instantaneous angular acceleration is the time derivative of angular velocity.

      The rotational kinetic energy is the kinetic energy due to the rotation of an object and is part of its total kinetic energy.

      Torque is the force that causes objects to turn or rotate (i.e., the tendency of a force to rotate an object about an axis).
