Symbol for frequency is ν

>symbol for frequency is ν

no, it's literally not you fucking brainlet.

velocity and speed are completely different

I just stumbled by this thread. Can I confirm something with you? Is velocity simply a speed with a designation of direction? It's been a while since my last physics class, but that was how my professor summed it up in layman's terms.

Symbol for velocity is usually v. I thought frequency was usually just f?

>brainlets who just took physics 101 thinking they have the right to call anyone else a brainlet
Velocity is a vector quantity
Speed is the magnitude of velocity

[eqn] \nu \neq v [/eqn]

rotceVelocity
ralacSpeed

You remember correctly.
Velocity (a vector) is speed (a scalar) plus a direction.
Usually expressed as either speed-components along 3 mutually perpendicular axes or as a speed and two angles.

Read it you fucking brainlet.

You too.

I don't know what you're trying to prove.
v is perfectly acceptable for representing speed (as it is the magnitude of the velocity vector).
Of course its not the same as ν (nu) for frequency, but the two look similar enough to be confused and both are used in the same areas of physics.

>it's close enough
You're probably the same cunt who rounds pi down to 3.

Pies are already round.

Isn't nuj angular velocity? But it does ring a bell as frequency now that you mention it.
No need to read anything again, splitting hairs over velocity vs. speed is an exercise in autism.

In third world countries maybe.

Except that's literally the subject of the thread.

v, u and w used as variables

No, the subject of the thread is using the same symbol for multiple physical properties. Which it seems like wasn't the case here.

Specific volume

>in my country U is a symbol for voltage
why live, friendos? i thought symbols would be standardized.

use x dot for velocity if you're a real one

Speed is [math]v[/math]
Frequency is [math]\nu[/math]

angular velocity is omega
