PhysicsVelocity and rotation

I am pretty new to physics, and I have enjoyed learning about it up to this point. So I am learning to move things around with physics. Going pretty well so far. I am stuck however at moving something forward after it rotates. I was able to get it working when using translations, but I haven't been able to find the trick with physics. I understand why it ignores the fact that it has rotated, this seems like a very common task. Is there a way to calculate the linear velocity that would be needed, offset by the angle of rotation of the object? Or is there an easier way to do it. Thanks in advance.

 

The easiest way I can think of to do it is this (using Unity.Mathematics):

physicsVelocity.Linear = math.forward(rotation.Value) * speed.Value;

 

Thanks, that is definitely getting me moving in the right direction (pun intended). A good starting point for sure.
