Question

how do you find angular velocity from cm/sec to degrees/sec?

Answer 1

It depends on the distance from the center of rotation
\[ \omega = \frac{\text{velocity (cm/s)}}{\text{radial distance (cm)}}\]

A point in circular motion with some velocity v will have a greater angular velocity distance r away from the center than it will distance R away from the center.

Answer 2

derp, sorry

Answer 3

omega = angular velocity = tangential velocity/radius

omega = 2 pi (radians) = 360o.
