A particle moving along a circular path of radius r and uniform speed v. Through what angle does it's angular velocity change when it completes half revolution

Dear student,

The change in angle when the particle completes half revolution with constant speed will be zero.

When the particle completes half revolution, it reaches the opposite end of its starting point. The direction of angular velocity is tangential, that is perpendicular to the radius vector.

So the angle of the velocity vector will be same in both the cases, and so change in angle will be zero.

Regards
