Because the velocity v is tangent to the circular path, no two velocities point in the same direction. ... Thus, v is a constant, and the velocity vector v also rotates with constant magnitude v, at the same angular rate ω.

Is tangential velocity constant?

The tangential speed is constant, but the direction of the tangential velocity vector changes as the object rotates. Note: The direction of the centripital acceleration is always inwards along the radius vector of the circular motion.

Does tangential speed change?

For an object traveling in a circular path at a constant speed, would the linear speed of the object change if the radius of the path increases? Yes, because tangential speed is independent of the radius. Yes, because tangential speed depends on the radius.
