Answer:
A ratio of equivalent units
Explanation:
A conversion factor is a ratio of equivalent units and depends on which units are to be converted.
For example we want to convert 275 [mm] to inches, so we have to find the right conversion factor to allow us to work that conversion.
275 [mm] = inches = ?
In this case the ratio is 1/25.4 = 0.039 [in/mm]
Answer:
(a) 1.093 rad/s^2
(b) 4.375 rad/s
(c) 8.744 rad/s
(d) 67.845 rad
Explanation:
initial angular velocity, ωo = 0
time, t = 8s
angular displacement, θ = 35 rad
(a) Let α be the angular acceleration.
Use second equation of motion for rotational motion
By substituting the values
35 = 0 + 0.5 x α x 8 x 8
α = 1.093 rad/s^2
(b) The average angular velocity is defined as the ratio of total angular displacement to the total time taken .
Average angular velocity = 35 / 8 = 4.375 rad/s
(c) Let ω be the instantaneous angular velocity at t = 8 s
Use first equation of motion for rotational motion
ω = ωo + αt
ω = 0 + 1.093 x 8 = 8.744 rad/s
(d) Let in next 5 seconds the angular displacement is θ.
By substituting the values
θ = 8.744 x 5 + 0.5 x 1.093 x 5 x 5
θ = 67.845 rad
