Radian per second

radian per second
radian per second
	Angular speed ω (in radians per second), is greater than frequency ν (in Hz), by a factor of 2π, because 2π rad/s corresponds to 1 Hz.
General information
Unit system	SI
Unit of	angular speed
Symbol	rad/s, rad⋅s−1

The radian per second (symbol: rad⋅s⁻¹ or rad/s) is the unit of angular velocity in the International System of Units (SI). The radian per second is also the SI unit of angular frequency (symbol ω, omega). The radian per second is defined as the angular frequency that results in the angular displacement increasing by one radian every second.
