Tangential Velocity given Angular Velocity Calculator

The Tangential Velocity given Angular Velocity formula is defined as the product of angular velocity and radius of cylinder. Tangential velocity is the linear speed of any object moving along a circular path. A point on the outside edge of a turntable moves a greater distance in one complete rotation than a point near to the center. When a body moves in a circular path at a distance r from the center, the body’s velocity is directed tangentially at any instant. This is known as tangential velocity. In other words, the linear velocity is its tangential velocity at any instant is calculated using Tangential Velocity of Cylinder = Angular Velocity*Radius of Inner Cylinder. To calculate Tangential Velocity given Angular Velocity, you need Angular Velocity (ω) & Radius of Inner Cylinder (R). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Angular Velocity & Radius of Inner Cylinder and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
