The blade of a steel cutter is rotating at a speed of 600 rev/min. If the radius of the blade is 7.5 cm, determine the (a) angular speed, (b) tangential speed and (c) radial acceleration of a point at the edge of the blade.
A particle initially moves in a horizontal circular path of radius π meters at a constant speed of 4 m/s.
With the initial speed of the particle as 4.0 m/s and changing at the rate of 5.0 m/s2, the magnitude of the total angular displacement (in revolutions) of the particle after a time interval of 2 s is nearly?
An object rotates about a fixed axis, and the angular position of a reference line on the object is given by u = 0.40e2t, where u is in radians and t is in seconds. Consider a point on the object that is 4.0 cm from the axis of rotation. At t = 0, what are the magnitudes of the point’s (a) tangential component of acceleration and (b) radial component of acceleration?
