A phonograph record has an initial angular speed of 37 rev/min. The record slows to 14 rev/min in 1.6 s. What is the record’s average angular acceleration during this time interval? Answer in units of rad/s 2

Respuesta :

Answer:

Acceleration will be [tex]\alpha =-1.50rad/sec^2[/tex]

Explanation:

We have given initial angular velocity [tex]\omega _i=37rpm[/tex]

In radian/sec initial angular velocity will be [tex]\omega _i=\frac{2\times \pi 37}{60}=3.873rad/sec[/tex]

Angular velocity after 1.6 sec is 14 rpm

So final angular velocity [tex]\omega _f=\frac{2\times \pi\times 14}{60}=1.465rad/sec[/tex]

Time t = 1.6 sec

We have to find the angular angular acceleration

From first equation of motion we know that

[tex]\omega _f=\omega _+\alpha t[/tex]

[tex]1.465=3.873+\alpha \times 1.6[/tex]

[tex]\alpha =-1.50rad/sec^2[/tex] here negative sign indicates that motion is deaccelerative in nature

The average angular acceleration recorded is -1.5 rad/s²

To solve this problem, we make use of the formula for calculating angular acceleration, with respect to angular speed and time.

Angular Acceleration: This can be defined as the rate of change of angular speed.

Formula

∝ = (ω₂-ω₁)/t........................ Equation 1

where:

  • ∝  = angular acceleration
  • ω₁ = Initial angular speed
  • ω₂ = Final angular speed

From the question,

Given:

  • ω₂ = 14 rev/min = (14×0.10472) rad/s = 1.46608 rad/s ≈ 1.47 rad/s
  • ω₁ = 37 rev/min = (37×0.10472) rad/s = 3.87464 ≈ 3.87 rad/s
  • t = 1.6s

Substite these values into equation 1

∝ = (1.47-3.87)/1.6

∝ = -2.4/1.6

∝ = -1.5 rad/s²

Hence, The average angular acceleration recorded is -1.5 rad/s²
