Angular Velocity Calculator
🪐 Gravity & circular motion. Use the Angular velocity formula to find angular velocity ω, time for one turn t: pick the value you want, type the others, and the answer updates as you go.
Pick the ○ next to the value you want to find, fill in the others, and it solves as you type.
What each letter means
| Quantity | Unit |
|---|---|
| Angular velocity ω | rad/s |
| Time for one turn T | s |
Worked example
Find the angular velocity ω when Time for one turn T = 1 s.
Using ω = 2π/T = 2π f: Angular velocity ω = 6.2832 rad/s.
Frequently asked questions
What is the formula for Angular velocity?
ω = 2π/T = 2π f.
What do the letters stand for, and what units are used?
Angular velocity ω in rad/s, Time for one turn T in s.
How do you calculate angular velocity ω?
Put the values into ω = 2π/T = 2π f. For example, with Time for one turn T = 1 s, angular velocity ω = 6.2832 rad/s.
Can I solve for a different value?
Yes. In the calculator above, pick the circle next to any value (angular velocity ω, time for one turn t) and fill in the others: it rearranges the formula for you.
