STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Tangential Velocity = -(Vortex Strength)/(2*pi*Radial Coordinate)
Vθ = -(γ)/(2*pi*r)
This formula uses 1 Constants, 3 Variables
Constants Used
pi - Archimedes' constant Value Taken As 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288
Variables Used
Tangential Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Tangential Velocity is the component of velocity in the tangential direction.
Vortex Strength - (Measured in Square Meter per Second) - Vortex Strength measure of the intensity or magnitude of a vortex, such as in fluid dynamics. A vortex is a region within a fluid where the flow revolves around an axis line.
Radial Coordinate - (Measured in Meter) - Radial Coordinate for an object refers to the coordinate of the object that moves in radial direction from a point of origin.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Vortex Strength: -420 Square Meter per Second --> -420 Square Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Radial Coordinate: 9 Meter --> 9 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Vθ = -(γ)/(2*pi*r) --> -((-420))/(2*pi*9)
Evaluating ... ...
Vθ = 7.42723067762178
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
7.42723067762178 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
7.42723067762178 7.427231 Meter per Second <-- Tangential Velocity
