The angular velocity of a point relative to an axis is defined as the variation ratio of the particle's the angular position (relative to the axis),
The units for the angular velocity are or simply . The angular velocity can be treated as a vector whose direction is perpendicular to the plane in which the particle rotates and given by the right-hand rule. For example, if a particle rotates in the plane its angular velocity is parallel to the axis, in the positive direction, if it rotates in the counter-clockwise direction and the negative for a clockwise rotation.
