Angular velocity (symbol ω) is the rate of change of an angular displacement. The SI unit is radians per second (rad/s). Angular velocity is a pseudovector, with the direction being perpendicular to the plane of rotation as dictated by the right-hand rule. It is equal to the angular momentum (L) divided by the moment of inertia (I) of an object. File:Rotating tube.png This mechanics-related article contains minimal information concerning its topic.

  • For an object rotating about an axis, every point on the object has the same angular velocity. The tangential velocity of any point is proportional to its distance from the axis of rotation. Angular velocity has the units rad/s. v = ωr Angular velocity is the rate of change of angular displacement and can be described by the relationship: and if v is constant, the angle can be calculated from:
