Is this useful behavior ? If not what kind of information would you like to have returned ?




My only problem is that there are more situations where I want the angular velocity rather than tangential velocity; I suspect this might be the case with most of us.

As such, with the exception of a sphere or cube that have a Unitary Moment of Inertia, solving for angular velocity for arbritrary geometries becomes cumbersome or downright impossible without Matrix Algebra.

IMO, it would be better if you could obtain rpm directly instead of m/s.
