A simple harmonic system and a particle moving in uniform circular motion have the same period. The angular frequency of the oscillating system is the same as the angular velocity of the rotational system.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In both cases, the angular frequency (for the simple harmonic motion) and the angular velocity (for the uniform circular motion) are defined as $2\pi$ divided by the period (T), hence they are equal if the periods are the same.
