Question

Problem 19P

A ceiling fan is rotating at 0.96 rev/s. When turned off, it slows uniformly to a stop in2.4 min. (a) How many revolutions does the fan make in this time? (b) Using the result from part (a), find the number of revolutions the fan must make for its speed to decrease from 0.96 rev/s to 0.48 rev/s.

Solution

Step 1 of 5

The objective here is to first determine the number of revolutions the fan will make in 2.4 minutes. Also, we have to find the number of revolutions the fan must make for decreasing its speed from 0.96 rev/s to 0.48 rev/s.
