  2. Tangential speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangential_speed

    The angular velocity is defined as /, where T is the rotation period, hence =. Thus, tangential speed will be directly proportional to r when all parts of a system simultaneously have the same ω , as for a wheel, disk, or rigid wand.

  3. 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.

  4. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    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 slot that has been milled represents the linear velocity at which the cutter is advanced laterally (usually mm/min or ...

  5. Circular motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_motion

    Figure 1: Velocity v and acceleration a in uniform circular motion at angular rate ω; the speed is constant, but the velocity is always tangential to the orbit; the acceleration has constant magnitude, but always points toward the center of rotation.

  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 ...

  7. Speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed

    Angular speed and tangential speed on a disc Tangential speed is the speed of an object undergoing circular motion, i.e., moving along a circular path. [6] A point on the outside edge of a merry-go-round or turntable travels a greater distance in one complete rotation than a point nearer the center. Travelling a greater distance in the same ...

  8. Angular mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_mechanics

    A diagram of angular momentum. Showing angular velocity (Scalar) and radius. In physics, angular mechanics is a field of mechanics which studies rotational movement. It studies things such as angular momentum, angular velocity, and torque. It also studies more advanced things such as Coriolis force [1] and Angular aerodynamics.

  9. 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.
