Tangential velocity Calculator

Tangential velocity, denoted as V𝜃, is the instantaneous velocity of an object or point that is moving in a circular or curved path. It represents the speed at which the object or point is moving along the tangent to the curve at a specific moment in time. In the context of circular motion or rotation, tangential velocity refers to the velocity of a point on the circumference of a circle or the surface of a rotating object. It is perpendicular to the radial direction (the line connecting the point to the center of rotation) and is directed along the tangent to the circle or curve at that specific point. 

• V𝜃: Tangential velocity of the point on the rotating object
• R: Radius of rotation (distance from the center of rotation to the point)
• ω: Angular velocity of the rotating object (rate of rotation in radians per unit time)
• r: Radial distance from the center of rotation to the point
