AngularAcceleration¶

class AngularAcceleration(value: float | int, unit: str)¶

Bases: UnitBase

AngularAcceleration object.

Attributes¶

unitstr: Symbol of the unit of measurement for angular acceleration.
valuefloat or int: Angular acceleration numerical value.

Methods¶

to(): It converts actual value to a new value computed using target_unit as the reference unit of measurement.

to(target_unit: str, inplace: bool = False) → AngularAcceleration¶

It converts actual value to a new value computed using target_unit as the reference unit of measurement.

If inplace is True, it overrides actual value and unit, otherwise it returns a new instance with the converted value and the target_unit as unit.

Parameters¶

target_unitstr: Target unit to which convert the current value.
inplacebool, optional: Whether to override the current instance value. Default is False, so it does not override the current value.

Returns¶

AngularAcceleration: Converted angular acceleration.

Raises

TypeError

If target_unit is not a str,
if inplace is not a bool.

KeyError

If the target_unit is not among available ones.

Examples

AngularAcceleration instantiation.

>>> from gearpy.units import AngularAcceleration
>>> a = AngularAcceleration(180, 'deg/s^2')
>>> a
180 deg/s^2

Conversion from degree per second squared to radian per second squared with inplace=False by default, so it does not override the current value.

>>> a.to('rad/s^2')
3.141592653589793 rad/s^2
>>> a
180 deg/s^2

Conversion from degree per second squared to radian per second squared with inplace=True, in order to override the current value.

>>> a.to('rad/s^2', inplace=True)
3.141592653589793 rad/s^2
>>> a
3.141592653589793 rad/s^2

property unit: str¶

Symbol of the unit of measurement for angular acceleration. It must be a str. Available units are:

'rad/s^2' for radian per second squared,
'deg/s^2' for degree per second squared,
'rot/s^2' for rotation per second squared.

Returns¶

str: Symbol of the unit of measurement for angular acceleration.

Raises

TypeError: If unit is not a str.
KeyError: If the unit is not among available ones.

property value: float | int¶

Angular acceleration numerical value. The relative unit is expressed by the unit property.

Returns¶

float or int: Angular acceleration numerical value.

Raises

TypeError: If value is not a float or an int.
