013 * Rate of change of angular displacement with respect to time.
014 * The system unit for this quantity is "rad/s" (radian per second).
015 *
016 * <p><cite>Angular speed</cite> is a scalar value, while <cite>angular velocity</cite> is a
017 * pseudo-vector. The angular speed is the magnitude of the angular velocity pseudo-vector,
018 * or the components of the angular velocity pseudo-vector.</p>
