A ship's propeller of diameter 3 m makes 10.6 revolutions in 30
s. What is the angular velocity of the propeller?
a 90.0 rad/s
b 31.8 rad/s
c 2.22 rad/s
d 66.7 rad/s

Respuesta :

Answer:

Approximately [tex]2.22\; {\rm rad\cdot s^{-1}}[/tex].

Explanation:

Each revolution increases the angular displacement of the propeller by [tex]2\,\pi[/tex] radians. Therefore, after [tex]10.6[/tex] revolutions, the angular displacement of the propeller will be [tex](10.6)\, (2\, \pi) = 21.2\,\pi[/tex] radians.

Divide angular displacement by the duration to find the angular velocity of this propeller:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\frac{21.2\, \pi\; {\rm rad}}{30\; {\rm s}} \approx 2.22\; {\rm rad\cdot s^{-1}} \end{aligned}[/tex].
