Adam Ant sits on the second hand of a clock, 12 cm from the center. What is his angular velocity in revolutions per minute

Respuesta :

The angular velocity in rev/min is 0.96 rev/min.

What is circular motion?

The term circular motion refers to movement round a circular path. Th clock is circular hence the ant is undergoing circular motion. The linear velocity of the ant is given by;

v = (12 × 10^-2)m/60 seconds = 0.002 m/s

Recall that v = rω

ω = v/r = 0.002 m/s/(12 × 10^-2)

ω = 0.016 rev/s or 0.96 rev/min
