A student is riding a new one cylinder mini motor scooter down a neighborhood street which has a posted speed limit of 30 km per hour. The scooter s wheels have amazing radius of 15 cm and the wheels are turning 400 times a minute. What is the angular velocity, of the scooter wheels in radians pet min

Respuesta :

The angular velocity is 2512 rad/min

Explanation:

The angular velocity of a rotating object is equal to the rate of change of the angular displacement:

[tex]\omega = \frac{\Delta \theta}{\Delta t}[/tex]

where

[tex]\Delta \theta[/tex] is the angular displacement

[tex]\Delta t[/tex] is the time elapsed

In this problem, we know that the wheels are turning 400 times a minute. This means that:

The angular displacement corresponding to 1 revolution is [tex]2\pi[/tex], so 400 revolutions correspond to an angle of

[tex]\Delta \theta = 400 \cdot 2 \pi = 800 \pi[/tex]

Moreover, the time interval is

[tex]\Delta t= 1min[/tex]

Therefore, the angular velocity of the wheel is

[tex]\omega=\frac{800 \pi}{1}=2512 rad/min[/tex]
