Figure SP.4.10

The angular velocities and angular accelerations of both the axel and disk are read from the slider.

The user may choose to display the path of the yellow ball on the disk.

Selecting a high angular acceleration is allowed, but not advised as the path will not be periodic.

There is an internal limit to the length of the path plotted (matters in the case of activated accelerations

The RESET button clears all data and returns to a stationary default position.

Angular Velocity Axle: Range is from 0.0 to 1.0 Angular Velocity Disk: Range is from 0.0 to 1.0 Angular Acceleration Axle: Range is from 0.0 to 0.2 Angular Acceleration Disk: Range is from 0.0 to 0.2
