360
2
Q
What is the definition of angular speed?
A
The angle an object rotates through per second.
3
Q
What is the formula that links angular speed and linear speed?
A
ω = v/r
4
Q
What is the definition for frequency?
A
Number of complete revolutions per second ( rev s-1 or Hz).
5
Q
What is the definition for time period?
A
Time taken for a complete revolution (s).
6
Q
How would you calculate the angular speed of an object in circular motion using its frequency?
A
ω = 2πf
