<u>Given: </u>
Radius of culvert, r = 0.5 m
Tangential acceleration of the truck, a = 3 m/s2
<u>To determine:</u>
The angular acceleration, α
<u>Explanation:</u>
The tangential acceleration is related to the angular acceleration through the radius as:
a = rα
α = a/r = 3 ms⁻²/0.5 m = 6 s⁻²
Ans: The angular acceleration is 6 s⁻²
Answer:
2 m/s
Explanation:
Applying the formulae of velocity,
V = d/t............. Equation 1
Where V = Velocity of the body, d = distance, t = time
From the question,
Given: d = 600 m, t = 5 minutes = (5×60) = 300 seconds.
Substitute these values into equation 1
V = 600/300
V = 2 m/s.
Hence the velocity of the body when it travels is 2 m/s
