Problem 2E
An airplane propeller is rotating at 1900 rpm (rev/min). (a) Compute the propeller’s angular velocity in rad/s. (b) How many seconds does it take for the propeller to turn through 35o?
ANSWER:
Solution 2E
Step 1 of 6:
An airplane propeller is rotating at 1900 rpm (rev/min). (a) Compute the propeller’s angular velocity in rad/s.
In the given problem, the angular speed is given in revolution per minute, we need to convert the given angular speed to radian per sec.
- One complete revolution is equal to 2rad,
That is 1 rev= 2rad
- Similarly 1min has 60sec,
1 min = 60 sec
