Units of Angular Speed

Description

 • Angular speed has the dimension plane angle per time. The SI composite unit of angular speed is the radian per second.
 • Maple knows the units of angular speed listed in the following table.

 Name Symbols Context Alternate Spellings Prefixes revolution_per_minute rpm angle * revolutions_per_minute

 An asterisk ( * ) indicates the default context, an at sign (@) indicates an abbreviation, and under the prefixes column, SI indicates that the unit takes all SI prefixes, IEC indicates that the unit takes IEC prefixes, and SI+ and SI- indicate that the unit takes only positive and negative SI prefixes, respectively.  Refer to a unit in the Units package by indexing the name or symbol with the context, for example, mach[standard] or mph[standard]; or, if the context is indicated as the default, by using only the unit name or symbol, for example, mach or mph.
 The unit of angular speed is defined as follows.
 A revolution per minute is defined as $2\mathrm{\pi }$ radians per minute.
