Problem 72P
A computer disk drive is turned on starting from rest and has constant angular acceleration. If it took 0.750 s for the drive to make its second complete revolution, (a) how long did it take to make the first complete revolution, and (b) what is its angular acceleration, in rad/s2?
ANSWER:
Step 1 of 2
In the given problem, the computer disk drive rotating with constant angular acceleration take =0.750 s to complete a second complete revolution. Here we need to calculate the time taken to complete the first revolution and angular acceleration in rad per second square.
Given data,
Displacement , (second complete revolution)
Time taken for second revolution , =0.750 s
Initial angular speed, =0 (as starts from rest)
To find,
Angular acceleration, =?
Time taken for first complete revolution, =?
