  2. Rotation around a fixed axis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_around_a_fixed_axis

    For example, a multi-spindle lathe is used to rotate the material on its axis to effectively increase the productivity of cutting, deformation and turning operations. [2] The angle of rotation is a linear function of time, which modulo 360° is a periodic function. An example of this is the two-body problem with circular orbits.

  3. Spinor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinor

    Consider applying a rotation to the coordinates of a system. No object in the system itself has moved, only the coordinates have, so there will always be a compensating change in those coordinate values when applied to any object of the system. Geometrical vectors, for example, have components that will undergo the same rotation as the coordinates.

  4. Orientation entanglement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orientation_entanglement

    Hence SU(2) acts via rotation on the vectors X. Conversely, since any change of basis which sends trace-zero Hermitian matrices to trace-zero Hermitian matrices must be unitary, it follows that every rotation also lifts to SU(2). However, each rotation is obtained from a pair of elements M and −M of SU(2). Hence SU(2) is a double-cover of SO(3).

  5. Plate trick - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_trick

    In mathematics and physics, the plate trick, also known as Dirac's string trick (after Paul Dirac, who introduced and popularized it), [1] [2] the belt trick, or the Balinese cup trick (it appears in the Balinese candle dance), is any of several demonstrations of the idea that rotating an object with strings attached to it by 360 degrees does not return the system to its original state, while ...

  6. Rotation formalisms in three dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_formalisms_in...

    Rotation formalisms are focused on proper (orientation-preserving) motions of the Euclidean space with one fixed point, that a rotation refers to.Although physical motions with a fixed point are an important case (such as ones described in the center-of-mass frame, or motions of a joint), this approach creates a knowledge about all motions.

  7. Spin-1/2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin-1/2

    In particular, if a beam of spin-oriented spin-⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ particles is split, and just one of the beams is rotated about the axis of its direction of motion and then recombined with the original beam, different interference effects are observed depending on the angle of rotation. In the case of rotation by 360°, cancellation effects are ...

  9. Active and passive transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_and_passive...

    A rotation of the vector through an angle θ in counterclockwise direction is given by the rotation matrix: = (⁡ ⁡ ⁡ ⁡), which can be viewed either as an active transformation or a passive transformation (where the above matrix will be inverted), as described below.
