vinkelhastighet

physical quantity defined as the rate of change of angular position whose direction is (if regarded as a vector) the axis of rotation

AI overview

Angular velocity measures how fast something is spinning or rotating around an axis, similar to how regular velocity measures how fast something moves in a straight line. It matters because it helps us understand and predict the behavior of rotating objects, from spinning wheels to orbiting planets.

Vinkelhastighet (rotationshastighet, eller vinkelfrekvens) är mått på ett föremåls rotation per tidsenhet kring sitt rotationscentrum. SI-enhet för vinkelhastighet är radianer per sekund. Ofta används den grekiska bokstaven ω för att beteckna vinkelhastighet mätt i denna enhet. Om en punkt på ett roterande föremål har avståndet r till rotationsaxeln och rör sig med hastigheten v, kan rotationshastigheten beräknas till v/r radianer per sekund.
