Practice question
Question
What is the direction of the angular velocity vector for a body rotating about a fixed axis?
Explanation
The angular velocity vector is directed along the axis of rotation, following the right-hand rule (curl fingers in the direction of rotation, thumb points along the vector). As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to Along the axis of rotation. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option B is scientifically correct.
