What is the angle between linear acceleration and angular acceleration of a particle in nonuniform circular motion?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In nonuniform circular motion, the angular accelerarion is an axial vector, perpendicular to the plane of the motion. The linear acceleration is in the plane of the motion. Hence, the angle between them is `90^@`.
