The AVERAGE speed is the total distance divided by the time (distance/time).To get the INSTANTANEOUS speed, you need to take the derivative of the position - as a formula, v = ds/dt (where "s" is a common abbreviation for the position).

How do you convert linear speed to angular speed?
To convert linear speed to angular speed, divide the linear speed by the radius of the rotating object. The formula for this relationship is: angular speed (ω) = linear speed (v) / radius (r). This will give you the angular speed in radians per second.
What is the rate of motion of an object in a linear motion?
That is the object's 'speed'.
What is the rate of motion of an object in linear motion?
That is the object's 'speed'.
What is a rate of motion of an object in a linear motion?
That's the object's 'speed'.
What are some items with linear motion?
Any object moving in a straight line, whether at a constant speed or not, is undergoing linear motion.
How is a change in motion described?
In linear or axial motion, a change in speed, a deceleration or an acceleration.
What is the difference between uniform linear motion an uniform circular motion?
linear is which is on a straight path and circular motion is which has a curved path. *In a uniform linear motion,the velocity is constant and the acceleration is zero.So,uniform linear motion is an unaccelerated motion. *In uniform circular motion the velocity can be variable although the speed is uniform.So,it is an accelerated motion.
What is the rate of motion of an object in a linear object?
That is the object's 'speed'.
Can a body in linear motion be in equilibrium?
If it remains at constant speed then it can be considered to be in equilibrium.
What is the word you use to give speed and direction of motion acceleration?
(linear) momentum .
How does a change in radius effect linear velocity?
For circular motion, linear speed = angular speed (in radians) x radius. How the radius affects speed depends what assumptions you make about the problem. For example, if you assume the radius increases but the angular speed does not, then of course the linear speed will increase.
Can the average speed ever equal the instantaneous speed?
When there is no acceleration or when there is constant acceleration. When either of these cases is present, the graph of velocity versus time will be linear. When there is linear velocity, the average velocity will equal the instantaneous velocity at any point on the graph.
