Answer:

Approximately -1.58\; \rm rad \cdot s^{-2}.

Explanation:

This question suggests that the rotation of this object slows down "uniformly". Therefore, the angular acceleration of this object should be constant and smaller than zero.

This question does not provide any information about the time required for the rotation of this object to come to a stop. In linear motions with a constant acceleration, there's an SUVAT equation that does not involve time:

v^2 - u^2 = 2\, a\, x,

where

  • v is the final velocity of the moving object,
  • u is the initial velocity of the moving object,
  • a is the (linear) acceleration of the moving object, and
  • x is the (linear) displacement of the object while its velocity changed from u to v.

The angular analogue of that equation will be:

(\omega(\text{final}))^2 - (\omega(\text{initial}))^2 = 2\, \alpha\, \theta, where

  • \omega(\text{final}) and \omega(\text{initial}) are the initial and final angular velocity of the rotating object,
  • \alpha is the angular acceleration of the moving object, and
  • \theta is the angular displacement of the object while its angular velocity changed from \omega(\text{initial}) to \omega(\text{final}).

For this object:

  • \omega(\text{final}) = 0\; \rm rad\cdot s^{-1}, whereas
  • \omega(\text{initial}) = 39.1\; \rm rad\cdot s^{-1}.

The question is asking for an angular acceleration with the unit \rm rad \cdot s^{-1}. However, the angular displacement from the question is described with the number of revolutions. Convert that to radians:

\begin{aligned}\theta &= 76.8\; \rm \text{revolution} \\ &= 76.8\;\text{revolution} \times 2\pi\; \rm rad \cdot \text{revolution}^{-1} \\ &= 153.6\pi\; \rm rad\end{aligned}.

Rearrange the equation (\omega(\text{final}))^2 - (\omega(\text{initial}))^2 = 2\, \alpha\, \theta and solve for \alpha:

\begin{aligned}\alpha &= \frac{(\omega(\text{final}))^2 - (\omega(\text{initial}))^2}{2\, \theta} \\ &= \frac{-\left(39.1\; \rm rad \cdot s^{-1}\right)^2}{2\times 153.6\pi\; \rm rad} \approx -1.58\; \rm rad \cdot s^{-1}\end{aligned}.

Why are peer reviews important?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Peer reviews are important because individuals with similar background knowledge are used to review work to detect inaccuracies or deficiencies in the work.

Explanation:

Those individuals with similar educational and work background knowledge can more accurately review work since they have the required knowledge base for the subject.

A car is traveling at a speed of 38.0 m/s on an interstate highway where the speed limit is 75.0 mi/h. Is the driver exceeding t
Tom [10]

Answer: Yes, he is exceeding the speed limit

Explanation:

Hi!

This is problem about unit conversion

1 mile = 1,609.344 m

Then the speed limit v is:

v = 75 mi/h = 120,700.8 m/h

1 hour = 60 min = 60*60 s = 3,600 s

v = (120,700.8/3,600) m/s = 33.52 m/s

38 m/s is higher than the speed limit v.
