2. Calculate the angular speed of the 26-inch bicycle rotating at 200 revolutions per minute. Express your answer in radians per minute. Use π = 3.14.
My answer:
Angular speed= (200 revs•2π/60 radians per second) =20.94 radians per second
(20.94 radians/second)•(60 sec/1 min)= 1256.4 radians per minute

Is this correct?

Respuesta :

The angular velocity for this problem is given by:
 Angular speed = 200 rev / min
 The first thing you should keep in mind is the following conversion:
 1 rev = 2π radians
 Applying the conversion we have:
 Angular speed = 200 * (2π)
 Rewriting:
 Angular speed = 200 * (2 * 3.14)
 Angular speed = 1256 radians / minutes
 Answer:
 
the angular speed is:
 
Angular speed = 1256 radians / minutes
