Answer:
230.4 s
Explanation:
The speed of car A is
and the distance travelled is
so the time taken for car A is
The speed of car B is
and the distance travelled is
so the time taken for car B is
So the difference in time is
Which corresponds to
so car B arrived 230.4 s before car A.

Answer:
A) 12.57 m
B) 5 RPM
C) 3.142 m/s
Explanation:
A) Distance covered in 1 Revolution:
The formula that gives the relationship between the arc length or distance covered during circular motion to the angle subtended or the revolutions, is given as follows:
s = rθ
where,
s = distance covered = ?
r = radius of circle = 2 m
θ = Angle = 2π radians (For 1 complete Revolution)
Therefore,
s = (2 m)(2π radians)
<u>s = 12.57 m</u>
B) Angular Speed:
The formula for angular speed is given as:
ω = θ/t
where,
ω = angular speed = ?
θ = angular distance covered = 15 revolutions
t = time taken = 3 min
Therefore,
ω = 15 rev/3 min
<u>ω = 5 RPM</u>
C) Linear Speed:
The formula that gives the the linear speed of an object moving in a circular path is given as:
v = rω
where,
v = linear speed = ?
r = radius = 2 m
ω = Angular Speed in rad/s = (15 rev/min)(2π rad/1 rev)(1 min/60 s) = 1.571 rad/s
Therefore,
v = (2 m)(1.571 rad/s)
<u>v = 3.142 m/s</u>
Potential energy increases as speed decreases. Kinetic increases when speed increases.
