Answer:
a. Angular velocity = 0.267rad/s.
b. Centripetal acceleration = 56.25m/s.
Explanation:
<u>Given the following data;</u>
Mass, m = 8kg
Radius, r = 4m
Constant speed, V = 15m/s
a. To find the angular velocity
Angular velocity = radius/speed
Substituting into the equation, we have;
Angular velocity = 4/15
Angular velocity = 0.267rad/s
b. To find the acceleration;
Centripetal acceleration = V²/r
Substituting into the equation, we have;
Centripetal acceleration = 15²/4
Centripetal acceleration = 225/4
Centripetal acceleration = 56.25m/s.
