Laura asks…Physics help with linear velocity and the radius?I don't need the answers, I need someone to explain how to do the problem and possibly the formula.
A force of 60N keeps a mass of .20 kg in a circular path at 120 rev/min. Clearly calculate the angular velocity (in rad/sec) for this mass and clearly calculate the radius and the linear velocity.Nancy answers:1 revolution = 2π radians.
ω = 120 rev/min.
= 2 rev/second
= 2 x (2π) radians/second
= 12.57 rad/s
(= 13rad/s to 2
