The variation of angular position theta,...

The variation of angular position `theta`, of a point on a rotating rigid body, with time t is shown in Fig. Is the body rotating clock wise or anti-clockwise ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

From Fig. we find that slope of `theta - t` graph is positive, which by convention, respresents anticlockwise rotation.
