Period of Revolution Formula
The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Period of Revolution.
T = 2*pi*R / V
Variables:
- T is the Period of Revolution (seconds)
- R is the radius of revolution (m)
- V is the speed of revolution (m/s)
To calculate the period of revolution, multiply 2 times pi by the radius of revolution, then divide the speed of revolution.
How to Calculate Period of Revolution?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Period of Revolution.
- First, determine the radius of revolution (m).
- Next, determine the speed of revolution (m/s).
- Next, gather the formula from above = T = 2*pi*R / V.
- Finally, calculate the Period of Revolution.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
radius of revolution (m) = 100
speed of revolution (m/s) = 30
T = 2*pi*R / V = ?
