Radian per second Radian per second The radian per second (symbol: rad·s or rad/s) is the SI unit of rotational speed (angular velocity), commonly denoted by the Greek letter "ω" (omega). The radian per second is also the unit of angular frequency. The radian per second is defined as the change in the orientation of an object, in radians, every second. Since the radian is a dimensionless unit, the radian per second is dimensionally equivalent to the hertz—both are defined as s. This may lead to confusion between the quantities angular frequency "ω" and frequency "ν". A use of the "unit radian per
Henry (unit) Henry (unit) The henry (symbol: H) is the SI derived unit of electrical inductance. If a current of 1 ampere flowing through the coil produces flux linkage of 1 weber turn, the coil has a self inductance of 1 henry.‌ The unit is named after Joseph Henry (1797–1878), the American scientist who discovered electromagnetic induction independently of and at about the same time as Michael Faraday (1791–1867) in England. The inductance of an electric circuit is one henry when an electric current that is changing at one ampere per second results in an electromotive force of one volt across the
