Answer the following questions related to speed in uniform circular motion: a. (i) Define angular speed ω\omega and frequency ν\nu and state the SI unit of each. b. (ii) Distinguish between linear speed vv and angular speed ω\omega for a particle moving in a circle. c. (iii) Keeping angular speed constant, explain qualitatively why the linear speed of a point on a rotating disc increases when the point is farther from the centre.
