Right Hand Rule To determine the direction of angular velocity using the right-hand rule, point the thumb of your right hand in the direction of the axis of rotation.
Right Hand Rule To determine the direction of angular velocity using the right-hand rule, point the thumb of your right hand in the direction of the axis of rotation.
Here's where you use the right-hand-rule: Let the fingers of your right hand curl in the direction of rotation. Your right thumb points in the direction of the angular velocity vector.
Angular momentum is related to rotational motion. As an object spins, its angular momentum vector points along its axis of rotation, as defined by the right-hand rule.
