Question

2. A certain object revolves at a rate of 30 rpm. Please determine the frequency and period of this

Answer 1

Answer:

The time period of the motion is, T = 0.03 s

The frequency of the rotation is, f = 30 Hz

Explanation:

Given data,

The rotational speed of an object, ω = 30 rpm

                                                          ω = 188.5 rad/s

The time period of motion is,

                            T = 2π / ω

Substituting the given values in the above equation

                               = 2π / 188.5

                            T = 0.03 s

The time period of the motion is, T = 0.03 s

The frequency of rotation,

                                f = 1 /T

                                   = 1 / 0.03

                                   = 30 Hz

Hence, the frequency of the rotation is, f = 30 Hz
