Angular Frequency

Angular frequency (also referred to by the terms angular speed, radial frequency, circular frequency, orbital frequency, radian frequency and pulsatance) is a scalar measure of rotation rate.

Angular frequency increases directly with the frequency of rotation.

Formula

QuantityVariable["ν", "Frequency"] == QuantityVariable["ω", "AngularFrequency"]/(2*Pi)
