Answer: 16.33 feet/s

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) circular motion
b) revolutions: 12 rpm
c) r = 15 feet
d) v = ?

2) Formulae:

angular velocity: ω = number of rpm × 2π / 60 seconds

linear velocity: v = ω × r

3) Solution:

ω = 12 × 2π / 60 s = 0.4π rad / s

v = 0.4π rad / s × 13 feet = 5,2 π feet / s ≈ 5,2 (3.14159) feet / s = 16.33 feet/s.

That is the answer.

Answer: There is linear velocity of 75 feet per hour of the children.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Time taken by merry - go - around = 12 times per minute

Distance from the center of the wheel when they are in their seats = 15 feet

We need to find the linear velocity of the children in feet per hour.

According to question,

Linear velocity = \dfrac{Distance}{Time}

So, it becomes,

Linear velocity is given by

\dfrac{15}{12}\times 60\\\\=15\times 5\\\\=75\ feet/hr

Hence, there is linear velocity of 75 feet per hour of the children.
