Angular position
Orientation of a line with another line or plane
Absolute angular position
Orientation of a line with another line or plane, but other line or plane is fixed and immovable relative to the earth
Ex. Looking at forward head posture when comparing to a fixed line
Relative angular position
Orientation of a line with another line or plane, but other line or plane is capable of moving
Ex. Generally anything in the body/comparing body parts
Angular displacement
Change in absolute angular position
Clockwise
Negative
Counterclockwise
Positive
Linear directions:
Up/down
Left/right
Forward/backward
Angular directions:
Clockwise/counterclockwise
Positive/negative
Flexion/extension
Internal rotation/external rotation
Angular velocity
The rate of change of angular displacement
ω= ΔΘ / Δt
Angular acceleration
Rate of change in angular velocity
α=Δω /Δt
