The difference between the rotation of a corner turning around a fixed axis and circular motion
Published Time：

Angular rotation about an axis, fixed-axis rotation, and circular motion are three different ways to describe the rotation or movement of an object. They have significant differences in definition, characteristics, and applications.
Angular rotation about an axis
Angular rotation about an axis usually refers to the process of an object changing its angle around a specific axis.
This is common in rotating components of mechanical systems, such as the steering axis of a car or the rotation of wind turbine blades.
Fixed-axis rotation
Fixed-axis rotation refers to the uniform or variable speed rotational motion of an object around a fixed and unchanging axis. Here, "fixed axis" means that the axis of rotation is fixed and does not change with time.
This is widely found in various mechanical and engineering systems, such as motors, engines, and gyroscopes.
Circular motion
Circular motion refers to the movement of an object along a circular path. This motion can be uniform or variable.
This is common in many natural and engineering phenomena, such as the motion of planets around stars, the motion of objects in circular orbits, and centrifuges.
Summary of Differences
Rotation axis: Angular rotation about an axis and fixed-axis rotation both involve rotation around an axis, but circular motion emphasizes the movement of the object along a circular path, which does not necessarily involve rotation around an axis.
State of motion: Angular rotation about an axis emphasizes the change in angle, fixed-axis rotation emphasizes rotation around a fixed axis, while circular motion emphasizes the state of movement of the object along a circular path.
Physical quantity description: Angular rotation about an axis and fixed-axis rotation are usually described using physical quantities such as angular velocity and angular acceleration, while circular motion may involve multiple physical quantities such as linear velocity, angular velocity, and centripetal acceleration.
