Question

what is axial vector explain briefly with example?

Answer 1

Axial vectors describe rotational motion and act along the axis of rotation (according to right hand rule). Torque, angular velocity, angular acceleration are axial vectors

Polar vectors describe the translational motion, the direction of polar vector remains unchanged irrespective of the coordinate system chosen.
Displacement, force etc are polar vectors
hope it works






or in simple language
The direction of some of the vector quantities is clearly indicated by the direction of motion of a system.Example of such vectors are displacement,velocity,acceleration,etc .such vectors are called polar vectors.

There is another category of vectors, namely, angular velocity,angular acceleration,angular momentum etc.associated with rotational motion. As you know,their direction does not indicate the direction of rotation of the body.their direction is taken to be along the axis of rotation.such vectors are called Axial vectors.
