Why are some vectors pseudo vectors and some real vectors?

Answer: There are no "pseudo vectors" there are pseudo "rules". For example the right hand rule for vector multiplication. If you slip in the left hand rule then the vector becomes a pseudo vector under the right hand rule. Answer: A pseudo vector is one that changes direction when it is reflected. This affects all vectors that represent rotations, as well as, in general, vectors that are the result of a cross product.


Why is magnetic field vector a pseudo vector?

It is the cross product of two vectors. The cross product of two vectors is always a pseudo-vector. This is related to the fact that A x B is not the same as B x A: in the case of the cross product, A x B = - (B x A).


Is angular acceleration a pseudo vector?

No, angular acceleration is a true vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction. It describes the rate at which an object's angular velocity is changing in a rotational motion.
