Given:
Time taken for 5 rotations = 5.15 seconds
Time for 1 rotation = 1.07 seconds
Distance from shoulder to elbow = 29 cm
Distance from shoulder to the middle of the hand = 57 cm
Let's use the information above to answer the following questions.
Question 2:
Let's determine how far in degrees the hand travelled during the five rotations.
In one full rotation, we have 360 degrees.
Thus, 5 full rotations = 5 * 360 = 1800 degrees
Therefore, in 5 full rotations, the hand travelled 1800 degrees.
B. In radians, we have:
180 degrees = π rad
[tex]1800\degree=\frac{\pi}{180}\ast1800=10\pi\text{ radians}[/tex]C. To find the distance in meters, we have:
Distance from elbow to shoulder = 29 cm = 0.29 meters
[tex]2\pi\ast5\ast0.29=9.11\text{meters}[/tex]Therefore, the hand travelled 9.11 meters during the five rotations.
Question 3:
A. To find the average angular speed, apply the formula:
[tex]\begin{gathered} w=\frac{10\pi}{t}\text{ (rad/s)} \\ \\ w=\frac{1800}{t}\text{ (degre}es\text{/s)} \end{gathered}[/tex]Where t = 5.15 seconds
Thus, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} w=\frac{10\pi}{5.15}=6.1\text{ rad/s} \\ \\ w=\frac{1800}{5.15}=349.5\text{ degre}es\text{/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]B. Average linear speed of the hand.
To find the average linear speed of the hand, we have:
[tex]v=\frac{10\pi r}{t}=\frac{10\pi}{5.15}\ast\frac{1}{2}=3.05\text{ m/s}[/tex]C. The average angular speed and average linear speed are the same
