v = r' \hat{r} + r*θ' (^θ)

The Attempt at a Solution

I was sure I knew how to do this question but made a mistake somewhere, because my answer is not right. So here is my working out.

l r' l = 11mm/s
Θ' = ?
r = 78mm

Looking at the question above.

The angular velocity is usually given in radian/s. Check the answer in your book. Otherwise your result looks OK.

There are two answer rads/s and degs/s, both are not the same as my answer.

I definitely did something wrong.

The sign can be wrong. The velocity shown makes the angle θ smaller.
