14.3 Angular Acceleration
The rotation may occur at a constant angular velocity, as in Fig. 14.4, or the angular velocity may vary. By analogy with translational motion, we characterize the rate of change of the angular velocity by the the angular acceleration, α, defined as:
Angular acceleration:

14.3.1 Example: Oscillating Antenna
Problem: You are using an underwater antenna to measure the electromagnetic response of the seafloor to search for hydrocarbons. The antenna has a length L = 5 m and is suspended from its top point above the seafloor (see Fig. 14.6a). You cannot use the antenna until the speed of its center is less than vc = 0.2 m/s. You have attached a measurement device to the antenna that measures the angle θ the antanna forms with the vertical as a function of time. You measure the behavior after you have lowered it to the bottom, and the resulting data is in antennaangles.dat.2 How long time does it take before you can use the antanna?
