Question

A jogger is going around a circular track with a radius of 100 ft. Determine the

Answer 1

Answer:

ω= 0.01 rad/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data is question is ,

• r = 100ft .
• t = 3 min = 180s.

Firstly let's find the linear speed. Which is

=> v = Circumference/time

=> v = 2πr/180s

=> v = 3.14 × 100ft ./ 90

=> v = 3.48 ft/s ≈ 1m/s

• Now the angular speed and linear speed are related as follows ,

=> v = r$\omega$

=> $\omega$ = v/r

=> $\omega$ = 1/100

=> $\omega$ = 0.01 rad/s

Hence the angular speed is 0.01 rad/s.
