Question

Determine the linear velocity of a point rotating 16.6 rad/sec (angular velocity) at a distance (r) of 8 centimeters from the center of the rotating object. Round to the nearest whole number.
a. 834 cm/sec
b. 133 cm/sec
c. 2 cm/sec

Answer 1

v=rω
v= linear velocity
ω= angular velocity
r= radius

Answer 2

\[v=16.6 \times 8=132.8 cm/s\]

Answer 3

thanks!

Answer 4

since \[v=\omega r\]
