      The rotational angle is a measure of how far an object rotates, and angular velocity measures how fast it rotates.

This is indeed true in the case of an object moving along a straight line path. On the other hand, a particle moving on a curved path is accelerating whether the speed is changing or not. Velocity has both magnitude and direction. In the case of a particle moving on a curved path, the direction of the velocity is continually changing, and thus the particle has acceleration.

Oftentimes, the errant sum will include forces with no moment arms (a force times a moment arm is a torque, but a force by itself is not a torque) and in other cases the errant sum will include a term consisting of a torque times a moment arm.

We begin with the relation between arc length s and angle θ (in radians) for a circle of radius r : s=rθ Taking the derivative with respect to time of both sides gives a relation between linear veloctiy v=ds/dt and angular velocity ω=dθ/dt : v=rω
