Method: Joules.max_particle_speed

Defined in:

lib/joules/oscillations.rb

.max_particle_speed(angular_velocity, amplitude) ⇒ Float

Calculates the maximum speed of a particle in oscillation given angular velocity and amplitude.

Examples:

Joules.maximum_speed(2.4, 5) #=> 12.0

Parameters:

• angular_velocity (Int, Float) —

  angular_velocity is in radians per second

• amplitude (Int, Float) —

  amplitude >= 0; amplitude is in metres

Returns:

• (Float) —

  return value is in metres per second

def max_particle_speed(angular_velocity, amplitude)
  return angular_velocity * amplitude.to_f
