Two students are playing on a merry-go-round that is spinning clockwise. Student A stands between the edge and the center, whereas student B stands near the edge, as shown in the image provided.

How does the magnitude of the linear velocity, v, and angular velocity, ω, compare for each of the students?
Pls put this in greater than and less than equation form

Answer:

The magnitude of the linear velocity for student A is greater than the magnitude of the angular velocity for student A. This can be written as: vA > ωA

The magnitude of the linear velocity for student B is less than the magnitude of the angular velocity for student B. This can be written as: vB < ωB
