Angular Velocity Calculator

Physics
0.0(0)

Calculates the rate of change of angular position (how fast an object rotates or revolves).

How To Use

How to use this calculator

Start with your values, or try a preset.

Step 1

Enter Angular Displacement and Time in the units shown.

Step 2

Read Angular Velocity (Radians/Second) and Angular Velocity in the results panel. Results update as you change the inputs.

Step 3

Choose a preset to load an example, then adjust the values for your situation.
