    Answer:

    a. Perpendicular.

    Explanation:

    The relation between angular velocity vector and linear velocity vector is described by a cross product:

    \vec v = \vec \omega \times \vec r

    Where \vec r is perpendicular to the rotation axis and \vec \omega is parallel to the same axis. By definition of cross product, \vec v is a vector which is perpendicular to both vectors. Therefore, linear velocity vector is perpendicular to angular velocity vector. The correct answer is A.
