    Similarly, the tangent plane to a surface at a given point is the plane that "just touches" the surface at that point. The concept of a tangent is one of the most fundamental notions in differential geometry and has been extensively generalized; see Tangent space. The word "tangent" comes from the Latin tangere, "to touch".

    The tangential component is given by the angular acceleration , i.e., the rate of change = ˙ of the angular speed times the radius . That is, a t = r α . {\displaystyle a_{t}=r\alpha .} The sign of the tangential component of the acceleration is determined by the sign of the angular acceleration ( α {\displaystyle \alpha } ), and the tangent ...
