Linear velocity and angular velocity are related by the formula:
v = ωr

ω = n2πr/t, where n is the number of rotations, t is the time taken, r is the radius.
ω = 2 x 2π x 25/1
ω = 100π

v = 100π x 25
= 2500π feet per minute

dusya [7]
<span>When t=0, v=0, d=0 When t=tf, v=41m/s, d=3.5m We have 2 formulas – the ones corresponding to uniformly accelerated linear movement: vf=a*t+vo d=(1/2)*a*t^2+vo*t Let’s put the data in the formulas: 41m/s=a*t+0=a*t 3.5m=(1/2)*a*t^2+0*t=1/2*a*t^2 You can use a variety of methods to find t and a. I will choose substitution. t=(41m/s)/a 3.5m=(1/2)*a*((41m/s)/a)^2=(1/2)*a*(41m/s)^2/a^2=(1/2)*(41m/s)^2/a a=(1/2)*(41m/s)^2/(3.5m)=(1/2)*41^2(m^2/s^2)/(3.5m) a=41^2(m/s^2)/( 2*3.5)=240m/s^2</span>

The length of a planet's day is determined by it's
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer: "People will say the length of a day is determined by just the rotation rate of a planet, but that isn’t entirely true. The orbit around its sun also factors in. What we define as a day is the time between when the Sun is highest in the sky until the next time the Sun is at the highest point in the sky. This isn’t just the time it takes the Earth to rotate once on its axis, though. This is because, as the Earth is rotating, it’s also moving relative to the Sun"

Suppose that an object undergoes simple harmonic motion, and its displacement has an amplitude A = 15.0 cm and a frequency f = 1
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Maximum speed ( v ) = 10.4 m/s (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Amplitude A = 15.0 cm = 0.15 m

Frequency f = 11.0 cycles/s (Hz)

Find:

Maximum speed ( v )

Computation:

Angular frequency = 2πf

Angular frequency = 2π(11)

Angular frequency = 69.14

Maximum speed ( v ) = WA

Maximum speed ( v ) = 69.14 x 0.15

Maximum speed ( v ) = 10.371

Maximum speed ( v ) = 10.4 m/s (Approx)
