  2. Angular velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_velocity

    The angular velocity of the particle at P with respect to the origin O is determined by the perpendicular component of the velocity vector v.. In the simplest case of circular motion at radius , with position given by the angular displacement () from the x-axis, the orbital angular velocity is the rate of change of angle with respect to time: =.

  3. Piston motion equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piston_motion_equations

    For rod length 6" and crank radius 2" (as shown in the example graph below), numerically solving the acceleration zero-crossings finds the velocity maxima/minima to be at crank angles of ±73.17615°. Then, using the triangle law of sines, it is found that the rod-vertical angle is 18.60647° and the crank-rod angle is 88.21738°. Clearly, in ...

  4. Tangential speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangential_speed

    (Angular speed and angular velocity are related to the rotational speed and velocity by a factor of 2 π, the number of radians turned in a full rotation.) Tangential speed and rotational speed are related: the greater the "RPMs", the larger the speed in metres per second.

  5. Sommerfeld number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sommerfeld_number

    r is the shaft radius c is the radial clearance μ is the absolute viscosity of the lubricant N is the speed of the rotating shaft in rev/s P is the load per unit of projected bearing area. The second part of the equation is seen to be the Hersey number. However, an alternative definition for S is used in some texts based on angular velocity: [2]

  6. Angular frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_frequency

    A sphere rotating around an axis. Points farther from the axis move faster, satisfying ω = v / r.. In physics, angular frequency (symbol ω), also called angular speed and angular rate, is a scalar measure of the angle rate (the angle per unit time) or the temporal rate of change of the phase argument of a sinusoidal waveform or sine function (for example, in oscillations and waves).

  7. Angular mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_mechanics

    A diagram of angular momentum. Showing angular velocity (Scalar) and radius. In physics, angular mechanics is a field of mechanics which studies rotational movement. It studies things such as angular momentum, angular velocity, and torque. It also studies more advanced things such as Coriolis force [1] and Angular aerodynamics.

  8. Revolutions per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolutions_per_minute

    Thus a disc rotating at 60 rpm is said to have an angular speed of 2π rad/s and a rotation frequency of 1 Hz. The International System of Units (SI) does not recognize rpm as a unit. It defines units of angular frequency and angular velocity as rad s −1, and units of frequency as Hz, equal to s −1.

  9. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    The exact RPM is not always needed, a close approximation will work. For instance, a machinist may want to take the value of π {\displaystyle {\pi }} to be 3 if performing calculations by hand. R P M = C u t t i n g S p e e d × 12 π × D i a m e t e r {\displaystyle RPM={CuttingSpeed\times 12 \over \pi \times Diameter}}
