Maverick Gamble · Answer 1

That statement is false.

Angular velocity is the rate at which that angle changes. As long as the reference line doesn't move, it doesn't matter where it is. The rate at which the angle changes is still the same, constant number.

Elena Krueger · Answer 2

False

Explanation:

The angular velocity of a rigid body that undergoes plane motion DOES NOT depend on the reference line from which its angle of rotation is measured.
