A special case of a mass is connected to a fixed piont and moves on a circular path problem

Physics Asked on June 17, 2021

A point mass $m$ is connected by a massless rod of length $l$ to a fixed point of support, now consider the mass moves on a circular path, rod has constant angle $θ$ with $e$ vertical, what’s the angular velocity of motion around the circle.

If the $θ$ is constant, which is not change with time, should the angular velocity be zero? I think it should not be that simple!

See the image above. The angular velocity that the question is asking is in the horizontal plane thus it will be changing. with respect to a fixed point.

The angle that the ball is making with the horizontal with respect to time
