Answer:
(a) [tex]\alpha =-1.43rev/sec^2[/tex]
(b) 4.17 rev
(c) 6.40 sec
Explanation:
We have given the angular velocity of fan decreases from 550 rev/min to 180 rev/min
So initial angular speed [tex]\omega _0=550rev/min=\frac{550}{60}=9.166rev/sec[/tex]
Final angular speed [tex]\omega =180rev/min=\frac{180}{60}=3rev/sec[/tex]
Time is given as t = 4.3 sec
(a) We know that angular acceleration is given by [tex]\alpha =\frac{\omega -\omega _0}{t}=\frac{3-9.166}{4.3}=-1.43rev/sec^2[/tex]
(b) We know the relation \Theta =\omega _0t+\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2=9.166\times 4.3-\frac{1}{2}\times 1.43\times 4.3^2=26.1935rad=\frac{26.1935}{2\pi }=4.17rev
(c) Now final angular velocity [tex]\omega =0rev/sec[/tex]
So time [tex]t=\frac{0-9.166}{-1.43}=6.40sec[/tex]
