Angular Velocity Calculator — ω = Δθ/Δt

Angular velocity measures rotation speed — radians per second in SI, but RPM is common for engines and turntables.

Angular Velocity Calculator — ω = Δθ/Δt

ω=ΔθΔt\omega = \frac{\Delta\theta}{\Delta t}

How to interpret the result

A wheel spinning at 60 RPM turns at about 6.28 rad/s — one full revolution (2π radians) every second.

Assumptions

  • Rotation about a fixed axis
  • Average angular velocity over the interval
