Detailed explanation-1: -We will see that unlike linear motion, where velocity and acceleration are directed along the line of motion, in circular motion the direction of velocity is always tangent to the circle. This means that as the object moves in a circle, the direction of the velocity is always changing.
Detailed explanation-2: -Tangential velocity is equal to the circumference of the circle divided by the time it takes to make one full rotation: 2*pi*r/t. It is also related to angular velocity by the formula V = w * r, where w (omega ) is the angular velocity of the rotating object and r is the radius of the circle.
Detailed explanation-3: -The direction of the instantaneous velocity of a particle is always tangent to the particle’s path at the particle’s position. The result is the same in three dimensions: is always tangent to the particle’s path. For example, is the scalar component of along the x axis.
Detailed explanation-4: -Tangential velocity vector is always parallel to the radius of the circular path along which the object moves. Tangential velocity vector is always perpendicular to the radius of the circular path along which the object moves.
