The correct answer is: 3.5×10-2 rad day-1

Given: The planet completes 2 revolutions in 360 days.

One rotation of the planet moves 2π radians angle.

Thus, angular frequency ω=θt, where θ represents the angle moved by the object and t represents the time taken by the object to travel through θ.

ω=2×2π360=0.0348=3.5×10-2 rad day-1.
