Consider a particle moving with uniform circular motion in anticlock wise direction with centre O and radius r the particle cover an arc of length △s in time △t moving from A to B. Hence the angular displacement is △θ=r△s Dividing both side by △t △t△θ=r1△t△s In the time interval △t be infinitesimally small (△t→0), then △t→θlim△t△θ=r1[△t→θlim△t△s] But △t→θlim△t△θ=ω and △t→θlim△t△s=V ∴ω=rV V=rω In vector form, V=ω×r
