## shiwani 3 years ago 'w' is angular velocity or angular frequency

1. shiwani

help me

2. hosein

angular velocity : Is a velocity that substances have ,when go around origion point with constant interval

3. shiwani

so what is angular frequwncy

4. hosein

your goal is$\omega?$

5. shiwani

yes

6. hosein

is a velocity that substanse have when traverse angle $\theta$ & it's relation with angular velocity is$v=r \omega$ r is radius of rotation sorry my english not well

7. hosein

thanks but ididn't got your end. what is meaning of "koi baat nahi"?

8. hosein

problem is here idon't know your language. what's it?

9. hosein

what is meaning of "koi baat nahi" in english?

10. hosein

yes no matter

omega is representative of both it just depends on the context of things. It is angular frequency when talking about waves but its angular velocity when talking about rotation or angular momentum. The common thing for both is angular. For ru can rotation you can use v=wr but you cannot for waves and optics because they mean different things. It is the same symbol but different meaning depending on context. :)
