Unit #5: Introduction to Trigonometry Accel Precalc Unit #5: Introduction to Trigonometry Lesson #3: Linear and Angular Speed EQ: How do you calculate linear and angular speed?
Angular Speed --- angle covered for a given amount of time Units Used to Describe Angular Speed: revolutions per minute rpm degrees per second deg/sec radians per hour rad/hr
Linear Speed --- distance travelled for a given amount of time Units Used to Describe Linear Speed: meters per second m/sec miles per hour mph Relationships: 1 revolution = 1 rotation around circle
Angular Measurement: 1 revolution = 2π radians Linear Measurement: Formulas: C = 2πr = πd
20 4.58 316,800
88 272.73 245
Ex. Find the linear speed for each circular object.
Ex. Find the angular speed for each.
