Interface AngularSpeed

All Superinterfaces:
javax.measure.Quantity<AngularSpeed>
public interface AngularSpeed
extends javax.measure.Quantity<AngularSpeed>
Rate of change of angular displacement with respect to time. The system unit for this quantity is "rad/s" (radian per second).

Angular speed is a scalar value, while angular velocity is a pseudo-vector. The angular speed is the magnitude of the angular velocity pseudo-vector, or the components of the angular velocity pseudo-vector.

Angular speed is usually represented by the symbol omega (ω, rarely Ω).
