Answer:
94.7 revolutions
Step-by-step explanation:
In the question above, we are given the following values for the fan
Angular velocity = 6.2 radians per seconds
Time = 1.6 minutes.
Step 1
We would convert the time given to seconds
1 minute = 60 seconds
1.6 minutes = ?
We cross multiply
1.6 minutes × 60 seconds
= 96 seconds
Step 2
Number of revolutions made by the fan is calculated as :
Angular velocity(rad/s)
× time(seconds)
Number of revolutions = 6.2 radians per seconds × 96 seconds
=595.2 radians
Converting from radians to revolution
1 radian = 0.159155 revolutions
595.2 radians =
Cross multiply
= 595.2 radians × 0.159155 revolutions
= 94.729056 revolutions.
Approximately to the nearest tenth = 94.7 revolutions.
Therefore, the number of revolutions the fan blade makes in 1.6 minutes is 94.7 revolutions.
