Angular Frequency

Angular frequency, abbreviated as \(\omega\) (Greek symbol omega), also known as radial frequency or circular frequency, measures the angular displacement per unit time.

 

Angular Frequency for Oscillating Object formula
\(\large{ \omega =  2 \; \pi \; f    }\)
Symbol	English	Metric
\(\large{ \omega }\)  (Greek symbol omega) = angular frequency	\(\large{\frac{deg}{sec}}\)	\(\large{\frac{rad}{s}}\)
\(\large{ f }\) = frequency	\(\large{Hz}\)	\(\large{Hz}\)
\(\large{ \pi }\) = Pi	\(\large{3.141 592 653 ...}\)

 

 

Angular Frequency for Rotating Object formula
\(\large{ \omega =  \frac{ \Delta \theta }{ \Delta t }  }\)
Symbol	English	Metric
\(\large{ \omega }\)  (Greek symbol omega) = angular frequency	\(\large{\frac{deg}{sec}}\)	\(\large{\frac{rad}{s}}\)
\(\large{ \Delta \theta }\) = rotation change	\(\large{deg}\)	\(\large{rad}\)
\(\large{ \Delta t }\) = time change	\(\large{sec}\)	\(\large{s}\)
