    Preference of Angular frequency over frequency for sinusoidal graphs

    Quote from 'The Physics of Vibrations and Waves by H.J.Pain': "However when we solve the equation of motion we shall find that the behaviour of x with time has a sinusoidal or cosinusoidal dependence, and it will prove more appropriate to consider not \nu, but the angular frequency \omega =...
