Rigidbody2D.angularVelocity

public float angularVelocity;

Description

Angular velocity in degrees per second.

A Rigidbody2D can only rotate around one axis (the Z axis) so the angular velocity is a single float value rather than a vector. Typically, the value of this property is not set directly but rather by applying torque to the rigidbody. The angular velocity will also decrease automatically under the effect of angularDamping.
