a lawn roller that is 30 inches in diameter makes one revolution every 5/6 second. find the angular speed of the roller in radians per second

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5pi/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how fast is the roller moving across the lawn?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry...its 12pi/5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and its moving at 12pi x 30 / 5 = 72pi in/sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you so much!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try doing the urself....the linear velocity is the radius times the angular speed

OpenStudy (mertsj):

And did you not use the diameter, him?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh..right Mert....it sholud be 15 inches into 12pi/5

OpenStudy (mertsj):

36 pi angular times radius

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for which part?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Linear

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Angular = 12 pi/5 Linear = 36 pi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you!
