What is the angular velocity of an object in a horizontal circular path of radius 1.5m with a constant speed of 12ms^-1?

We know that v = ωr, where v is tangential velocity v = 12m/s and r = 1.5m is the radius of the circle.
Then the angular velocity ω = 12/1.5 = 8/s (8 radians/s)

Speed,V = angular velocity,w × Radius,r
W=V/r
W= 12/1.5
W= 8rad/s

but it can also b written as 0.08/s
