Answer:

<h2>The period is 0.04 sec</h2>

Explanation:

This problem is based on oscillatory motion.

What is the period of oscillation?

This can be defined as the time taken to complete one full revolution or oscillation.

given that the fly flaps its wings back and forth 25 times in one second. then the frequency is 25 Hz

we know that period T= 1/F

T= 1/25

T=0.04 sec

A small rubber wheel is used to drive a large pottery wheel. The two wheels are mounted so that their circular edges touch. The

Answer:

$0.629\ \text{rad/s}^2$ counterclockwise

$9.98\ \text{s}$

Explanation:

$r_1$ = Small drive wheel radius = 2.2 cm

$\alpha_1$ = Angular acceleration of the small drive wheel = $8\ \text{rad/s}^2$

$r_2$ = Radius of pottery wheel = 28 cm

$\alpha_2$ = Angular acceleration of pottery wheel

As the linear acceleration of the system is conserved we have

$r_1\alpha_1=r_2\alpha_2\\\Rightarrow \alpha_2=\dfrac{r_1\alpha_1}{r_2}\\\Rightarrow \alpha_2=\dfrac{2.2\times 8}{28}\\\Rightarrow \alpha_2=0.629\ \text{rad/s}^2$
