Tangential Velocity: Definition, Formula, Equation, Calculation and Examples

The video tutorial explores the concept of tangential velocity, starting with an introduction to tangents and functions. It explains how tangential velocity applies to both circular and nonlinear motion, emphasizing its vector nature and relationship with angular velocity. The tutorial also covers practical examples, such as the motion of objects on a carousel and the implications of tangential velocity in various scenarios.
