Jupiter has the fastest rotation of all the planets in the Solar System, completing one rotation on its axis every 9.9 hours. The rapid rotation causes the planet’s equator to bulge out. Instead of being a perfect sphere, Jupiter looks more like a squashed ball. What is its angular velocity in radians per second?
Given: 2π rad=360°
ω=angular velocity in rad/s
ΔΘ=change in angle in radians
Δt=change in time in seconds
ω=ΔΘΔt
