  2. Angular velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_velocity

    In physics, angular velocity (symbol ω or , the lowercase Greek letter omega), also known as angular frequency vector, [1] is a pseudovector representation of how the angular position or orientation of an object changes with time, i.e. how quickly an object rotates (spins or revolves) around an axis of rotation and how fast the axis itself changes direction.

  3. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    Intuitively, the velocity increases linearly, so the average velocity multiplied by time is the distance traveled while increasing the velocity from v 0 to v, as can be illustrated graphically by plotting velocity against time as a straight line graph. Algebraically, it follows from solving [1] for

  4. Screw theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_theory

    A twist is a screw used to represent the velocity of a rigid body as an angular velocity around an axis and a linear velocity along this axis. All points in the body have the same component of the velocity along the axis, however the greater the distance from the axis the greater the velocity in the plane perpendicular to this axis.

    The graphs below show the angle domain equations for a constant rod length (6.0") and various values of half stroke (1.8", 2.0", 2.2"). Note in the graphs that L is rod length l {\displaystyle l} and R is half stroke. r {\displaystyle r} .

  6. Angular frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_frequency

    Angular frequency (or angular speed) is the magnitude of the pseudovector quantity angular velocity. [1] Angular frequency can be obtained multiplying rotational frequency, ν (or ordinary frequency, f) by a full turn (2 π radians): ω = 2 π rad⋅ν. It can also be formulated as ω = dθ/dt, the instantaneous rate of change of the angular ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    The circular arrow represents the angular velocity of the spindle (rev/min), called the "spindle speed" by machinists. The tangential arrow represents the tangential linear velocity (m/min or sfm) at the outer diameter of the cutter, called the "cutting speed", "surface speed", or simply the "speed" by machinists. The arrow colinear with the ...

  8. Kinematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematics

    Angular velocity: the angular velocity ω is the rate at which the angular position θ changes with respect to time t: = The angular velocity is represented in Figure 1 by a vector Ω pointing along the axis of rotation with magnitude ω and sense determined by the direction of rotation as given by the right-hand rule.

  9. Velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velocity

    Speed, the scalar magnitude of a velocity vector, denotes only how fast an object is moving, while velocity indicates both an object's speed and direction. [3] [4] [5] To have a constant velocity, an object must have a constant speed in a constant direction. Constant direction constrains the object to motion in a straight path thus, a constant ...
