In this post, we will discuss ω (omega) which is the angular speed in a circular motion. In linear or straight-line motion, we measure speed by looking at how much distance is covered each second. We can do that in circular motion too, but it’s often better to use angular speed, ω.
Small Angle Approximations (for physics derivations and numerical problems)
For very small angles, you can approximate values for the sine, cosine, or tangent. This is useful when calculating the fringe separations in interference patterns. When θ is measured in radians, a small angle segment approximates to s/r where s is the arc length and r is the radius. In other words, for a small […]
Rolling Motion (or plane motion) & its types
The motion of a rigid body undergoing rotation about an axis, with the axis of rotation having a translational motion, is called rolling motion or plane motion.

How to convert between degrees and radians -degree and radian conversion formulas
Angular displacement is often expressed in one of three units. The first is the degree, and it is well known that there are 360 degrees in a circle. The second unit is the revolution (rev), one revolution representing one complete turn of 360 degrees. The most important unit from a scientific viewpoint, however, is the […]
What is the difference between Circular motion and rotational motion – are they the same?
Rotational motion is a type of circular motion. In other words, all circular motions can’t be called rotational motion, but all rotational motions are certainly circular motions. When an object turns, it’s in a circular motion irrespective of the position of its axis. But for a rotational motion, the axis has to be located within the body of the object.
Moment of Couple & its Formula
Moment of Couple – this term in physics is based on an understanding of 2 concepts, the first one is ‘moment’ and the second one is ‘couple’. The moment in physics denotes the turning effect. A couple in physics is discussed in our post on Couple – you can read it here. Moment of Couple […]
