    Angular velocity is the rate of change of angle of a body, i. e. omega = v / r = (2*pi*r) / r*t = (2*pi) / T. where T is the time period of whatever is rotating and r is the radius of the circle. So if a circular disc is spinning at 1 m/s then the angular velocity of it is 2*pi radians / second.
