Question
Kevin decides to soup up his car by replacing the car's wheels with ones that have 1.1 times the diameter of the original wheels. Note that the speedometer in a car is calibrated based on the tire's diameter and on the distance the tire covers in each revolution.
(a)Will the reading of the speedometer change?
Yes/No
(b)If you answered 'Yes' in part (a), determine the factor by which the reading of the speedometer changes. (Enter 'NA' if you did not answer 'Yes' in part (a).)

A friend spins the front wheel, of radius 0.408 m, and observes that drops of water fly off tangentially in an upward direction when the drops are at the same level as the center of the wheel. She measures the height reached by drops moving vertically (see figure below). A drop that breaks loose from the tire on one turn rises h = 54.3 cm above the tangent point. A drop that breaks loose on the next turn rises 51.0 cm above the tangent point. The height to which the drops rise decreases because the angular speed of the wheel decreases. From this information, determine the magnitude of the average angular acceleration of the wheel. rad/s2 harrow_forwardAn electric fan rotates at the rate of 850 rev / min when it is turned off.
