  1. What is the difference between radial velocity, angular velocity and ...

    Nov 7, 2019 · A particle is moving in a plane with constant radial velocity 12 m/s and constant angular velocity 2 rad/s. When a particle is at a distance r=8 m from origin what is the magnitude of …

  2. Why can't angular velocity be a scalar quantity in 3D?

    Dec 14, 2025 · 9 Angular velocity can be represented as a scalar quantity in 2D. In this case we have magnitude and sign of angular velocity that show direction of rotational motion (clockwise or …

  3. Understanding Angular Velocity: W = 2pi (f) - Physics Forums

    May 31, 2010 · Angular velocity (ω) is defined by the equation ω = 2πf, where f represents frequency. This relationship arises from the fact that frequency measures the number of complete cycles per …

  4. Difference between angular velocity and angular frequency

    Aug 8, 2018 · I have seen so many questions and confusion about the difference between angular velocity/speed and angular frequency. Usually, answers were always given in the context of uniform …

  5. Relation Between Spring Constant and Angular Velocity

    Nov 17, 2015 · The discussion revolves around the relationship between the spring constant (k), angular velocity (ω), and the time period (T) of an oscillating particle. Participants explore the mathematical …

  6. Angular velocity in terms of Euler angles • Physics Forums

    Oct 7, 2020 · The discussion revolves around deriving the components of angular velocity in terms of Euler angles, as presented in a physics textbook. Participants explore the mathematical relationships …

  7. newtonian mechanics - How to derive the formula for angular velocity ...

    Mar 29, 2022 · Now, the angular velocity ω ω → is defined in two parts: its magnitude is given by the rate of change of angular displacement its direction is perpendicular to that of r ⃗ r → and dr→ d r →, …

  8. Angular Velocity in Simple Harmonic Motion • Physics Forums

    Nov 2, 2017 · The discussion revolves around the concept of angular velocity in the context of simple harmonic motion (SHM), exploring its relevance and the mathematical relationships involved. …

  9. Why is angular velocity perpendicular to the plane of rotation?

    May 22, 2014 · Others argue that angular velocity defines the axis around which rotation occurs, suggesting that this orientation is a matter of convention that has proven practical. A participant …

  10. Can someone provide an intuitive relation between linear and angular ...

    Feb 23, 2021 · Here vR/s v R / s is the angular velocity (the velocity measured in "natural" units is always vR/P = 2π v R / P = 2 π). For non-uniform circular motion it's the exactly the same, but you …
