A bicycle with 24-inch diameter wheels is traveling at 12 mi/h. Find the angular speed of the wheels in rad/min.

Sagot :

Answer:

1055.99 rad/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The diameter of a bicycle, d = 24 inches

Radius, r = 12 inches

The bicycle is travelling at 12 mi/h.

We need to find the angular speed of the wheels in rad/min.

We know that,

1 mi/h = 0.0166667 mi/min

It means,

12 mi/h = 0.2 mi/min

Also,

12 inch = 0.000189394 miles

The angular speeds of the wheels is given by :

[tex]v=r\omega\\\\\omega=\dfrac{v}{r}\\\\\omega=\dfrac{0.2}{0.000189394}\\\\\omega=1055.99\ rad/min[/tex]

So, the angular speeds of the wheels is 1055.99 rad/min.
