Concept explainers
a)The direction of the linear velocity of a point on the top of the rotating wheel
b)The direction of the tangential linear acceleration of this point
c)If the angular speed is increasing or decreasing
Answer to Problem 22Q
Solution:
a)At the top of the rotating wheel the direction of the linear velocity of a point is south
b)At this point the direction of the tangential linear acceleration is south
c)The angular speed will be decreased.
Explanation of Solution
a)The right hand rule can be used to find the direction of linear velocity. If the thumb points in the direction of
b)If the
c)Since the angular acceleration is in a direction opposite to that of angular speed, the angular speed is decreasing.
