Jun 30, 2021 · The general formula for the angular velocity of a simple pendulum isn't simple to derive at all. However, it is possible to derive its angular frequency using the small angle approximation. In this approximation, the angle $\theta$ (in radians) is very small $$\theta \ll 1 \implies \sin \theta \approx \theta.$$
Sep 4, 2023 · I am confused about the usage of the terms frequency and angular frequency in physics texts. E.g. in the book "Classical Electrodynamics" of J.D. Jackson, one considers in formula (7.3) page 296, plane wave solutions to the Helmholtz equation of the form
Dec 30, 2018 · So here, I don't get why the angular frequency equals the following value $$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$$ I tried to see if this has any evident reasonament to see why this is dimensionaly correct (especially with the square root).
$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{\kappa}{\mathcal{I}}}$ is the angular frequency of oscillation, and is generally a constant of motion unless something actively modifies the system (changes the moment of inertia or the torsional constant).

Dec 19, 2020 · Angular frequency is the magnitude of angular velocity which is a vector. Angular velocity is a measure of how fast the angular position of an object changes with time, relative to some point in space. Angular frequency or angular speed is a scalar measure of this rotation rate without reference to a particular point in space or orientation.
Jan 31, 2022 · Common units of measure for angular velocity are revolutions-per-minute ($\text{rpm}$) and radians-per-second ($\text{rad/s}$). To get instantaneous angular velocity, you need to include limits and derivatives. The distance particle covers in time $\Delta t$ is
Apr 15, 2015 · $\omega$ is the angular velocity of the circular motion which is associated to the SHM of the quantity that forms wave. Actually, $\omega^2$ is more meaningful. That is the square of the angular frequency of oscillation $\omega$ is equal to the return force/restoring force per unit displacement per unit $\text{mass}^1$.
It corresponds to the velocity of the wave component at frequency $\nu$ propagating over distance $\lambda$ per unit time. This is always true, but for more complicated situation, a system is represented by a superposition of different waves propagating at different phase velocity.
Is it possible to prove this formula in this way? Also, if I haven't done something that's completely incorrect, then is this a standard formulae that I just haven't seen before? homework-and-exercises
