ω\omega — Omega

Lowercase omega (ω) denotes angular velocity or angular frequency — how fast something rotates or oscillates, in radians per second. Uppercase Ω is reserved for the ohm, the unit of resistance.

SI unit: rad/s

Used in

  • Angular velocity ω = Δθ/Δt
  • Simple harmonic motion x = A cos(ωt)
  • AC circuit frequency
