A fan blade is rotating with a constant angular acceleration of +14.1 rad/s2. At what point on the blade, as measured from the axis of rotation, does the magnitude of the tangential acceleration equal that of the acceleration due to gravity?

Respuesta :

Answer:

0.695 m

Explanation:

α = angular acceleration of the fan blade = 14.1 rad/s²

a = tangential acceleration at the point concerned = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

r = distance of the point from axis of rotation at which tangential acceleration is same as acceleration due to gravity

We know the relation between

a = r α

Inserting the values

9.8 = 14.1 r

r = 0.695 m
