Question

what is the angular velocity of a rotating vector with a radius of .5?

Answer 1

I think that by just knowing the radius, you cannot really get a precise answer.

However, if you know the linear velocity (v) of the vector, we know a relation that can help us find angular velocity (w) using radius (r).

The relation is:

v = w * r

w = v / r .... result.

w = v / 0.5 = 2v ... ANS

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

Your velocity will be in radians per second, or degrees per second, typically, and is independant of the radius, unless you've got some sort of related rate scenario, where the hypotenuse is changing over time.

In short: not enough information to solve your problem.
