Question
The instantaneous angular speed ω of a rotating object is defined as the limit of the average angular speed as the
Correct Answer
Option C is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Instantaneous angular speed is the angular velocity at a specific instant. It is found by taking the limit of the average angular speed (Δθ/Δt) as the time interval Δt approaches zero. Mathematically, ω = lim_{Δt→0} Δθ/Δt = dθ/dt.
Hint
This definition is analogous to how instantaneous linear velocity is defined from average velocity.
