Angular & Linear Speed Linear speed: Angular speed: Arc length: Relates linear & angular speed
Get rid of all units on top to get “radians” (radians don’t have units) Example 1 Linear speed A car has wheels that are 28 inches in diameter & is traveling at 45 mph. Find angular speed in radians per minute. Diameter = 28 Radius = ½(28) = 14 Linear speed Angular speed Convert to radians per minute
