A bus is traveling with a uniform acceleration of 2.75 meters/second2. If the initial velocity of the bus is 16.5 meters/second,
Kaylis [27]
<span>The velocity will be 41.25 m/s2 after 9 seconds. To find velocity after a specific time period, multiply the acceleration (2.75) times the number of seconds (9) to receive 24.75 m/s, then add that to the initial velocity of 16.5 m/s. 24.75 + 16.5 = 41.25 m/s2.</span>

A wheel rotates clockwise 10 times per second. what is its angular speed answer
bogdanovich [222]
The frequency of the wheel is the number of revolutions per second:
f= \frac{N_{rev}}{t}= \frac{10}{1 s}=10 Hz
And now we can calculate the angular speed, which is given by:
\omega = 2 \pi f=2 \pi (10 Hz)=62.8 rad/s in the clockwise direction.
