Using proportions, it is found that the angular velocity at the tip of the blade is of 753.98 radians per minute.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

Each revolution has $2\pi$ radians, hence in one minute, the 120 revolutions will have a measure in radians of:

M = 120 x 2pi = 240pi = 753.98

Hence the angular velocity is of 753.98 radians per minute.
