The relation between linear velocity v, angular velocity ω and radius r in circular motion is

Av = ω/r
Bv = ω²r
Cv = ωr
Dv = ωr²
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. v = ωr
1. For a particle moving on a circle of radius r with angular velocity ω, the arc length per unit time equals v. 2. Arc length ds = r dθ, so v = ds/dt = r(dθ/dt) = ωr. 3. Hence v = ωr. _Source: Maharashtra Balbharati Std XII Physics, Ch 1 "Rotational Dynamics" §1.2.1_
