Answer:
The velocity of the blades is 88.185 m/s.
Explanation:
Given;
length of the blade, r = 80 m
angular speed, ω = 1 rev per 5.7 seconds
The velocity of the blades is calculated by applying the following circular motion equation that relates linear velocity (V) and angular speed (ω);
[tex]V = \omega r\\\\V = (\frac{1 \ rev}{5.7 \ s} \times \frac{2 \pi \ rad}{ 1 \ rev} )(80 \ m)\\\\V = 88.185 \ m/s[/tex]
Therefore, the velocity of the blades is 88.185 m/s.
