If a flywheel is rotating at 3.0 rad/s, the time it takes to complete one revolution is
Correct answer: D. 2.1 s
- A. 0.67s
- B. 10. s
- C. 1.3s
- D. 2.1 s
Explanation
To find the time it takes for a flywheel to complete one revolution, we can use the formula: Time = (2π radians) / Angular velocity Given that the flywheel is rotating at 3 rad/s, we can substitute this value into the formula: Time = (2π radians) / (3 rad/s) Time = 2.1 seconds

About Angular Velocity
Angular velocity describes how quickly angular displacement changes with time, with ω = Δθ/Δt and units of radians per second. Questions relate angular and linear motion through v = rω, use the direction given by the right hand rule, and distinguish angular velocity from angular acceleration and ordinary frequency.
