Tangential Velocity: The tangential velocity is the velocity measured at any point tangent to a turning wheel. Thus tangential velocity, vt is related to the angular velocity of the wheel, omega, and the radius of the wheel, r. Vt = omega * Radius

Linear speed is the distance traveled per unit of time, while tangential speed (or tangential velocity) is the linear speed of something moving along a circular path.

The linear velocity of a point on a rotating rigid object at a distance r from the axis of rotation represents the tangential velocity of that point. * For rotation about a fixed pivot point, the path of any point on a revolving body is a circle, and its linear velocity at any moment is always tangent...

Tangential Velocity When a body is moving in circular path at a distance r from its center its velocity at any instant will be directed tangentially. This is what we call tangential velocity.

Don't want to over express myself, just join and feel the experience.

The linear velocity of a point on a rotating object from the axis of rotation shows the tangential velocity of that point.

Why sea water appears blue in colour?
When white light falls on sea, longest wavelength light (i.e., red, orange and yellow) are absorbed by water and remaining short wavelength light blue gets reflected. That's why sea and as well sky looks blue in colour
