A body rotating at an angular velocity of 5 radians/sec, with a radius of 5 metres has a speed of
- 5pi metres per second.
- 5 metres per second.
- 25 metres per second.
Explanation from PART66Online
The linear (tangential) speed of a rotating point is v = omega x r = 5 rad/s x 5 m = 25 m/s. The 5 m/s answer ignores the radius, and the 5pi option wrongly introduces pi, which is not part of the v = omega r relationship.

Correct me if Im wrong.
Linear velocity = angular velocity*radius of rotation.(meters/second)
v=ω*r. v=5*5, v=25.
Linear velocity = angular velocity*radius of rotation.(meters/second)
v=ω*r. v=5*5, v=25.

how can you multiply radians/s and meters to get m/s?

rad/s are the same as 1/s.
So imagine v= w*r.
v = 1/s * m
v = m/s
So imagine v= w*r.
v = 1/s * m
v = m/s
