Q. Assertion : If the head of a right handed screw rotates with the body, the screw advances in the direction of the angular velocity
Reason : For rotation about a fixed axis, the angular velocity vector lies along the axis of rotation.

System of Particles and Rotational Motion

Solution:

If the sense of rotation of the body changes i.e.y clockwise or anti-clockwise so does the direction of angular velocity.
