Sets the angular velocity of the node

<node3d>.setAngularVelocity(  
[ vx, vy, vz ]  
mode = viz.ABS_GLOBAL  
)  
[ vx, vy, vz ]
mode = viz.ABS_GLOBAL
If viz.ABS_GLOBAL, the velocity will be specified in global coordinates. Otherwise the velocity will be specified in the objects local coordinate frame.

Angular velocity is the rate at which a node's orientation changes and is created by torque.
