A pulley 326 mm in diameter and rotating initially at 4.00 revolutions per second receives a constant angular acceleration of 2.25 radians per second squared by a drive belt. What is the linear velocity of the belt after 5.00 seconds

Answer:

The linear velocity, v = 5.93 m/s

Explanation:

To find the linear velocity after 5 seconds, we find its angular velocity after 5 seconds using

ω' = ω + αt where ω = initial angular speed = 4.00 rev/s = 4.00 × 2π rad/s = 25.13 rad/s, ω' =  = final angular speed, α = angular acceleration = 2.25 rad/s² and t = time = 5.00 s

ω' = ω + αt

= 25.13 rad/s + 2.25 rad/s² × 5.00 s

= 25.13 rad/s + 11.25 rad/s

= 36.38 rad/s

The linear velocity v is gotten from v = rω' where r = radius of pulley = 326 mm/2 = 163 mm = 0.163 m

v = rω'

= 0.163 m × 36.38 rad/s

= 5.93 m/s

So, the linear velocity  v = 5.93 m/s
