A ceiling fan with 80-cm-diameter blades is turning at 70 rpm . suppose the fan coasts to a stop 30 s after being turned off. part a what is the speed of the tip of a blade 10 s after the fan is turned off

Respuesta :

Answer:

1.97 m/s

Explanation:

The initial angular velocity of the blades is:

[tex]\omega_i = 70 rev/min = (70 rev/min) (\frac{2\pi rad/rev}{60 s/min})=7.33 rad/s[/tex]

The final angular velocity is

[tex]\omega_f = 0[/tex]

(since the blades come to a stop)

and the time taken is

t = 30 s

So, the angular acceleration of the blades is

[tex]\alpha = \frac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}=\frac{0-7.33 rad/s}{30 s}=-0.24 rad/s^2[/tex]

Now we can find the angular velocity of a blade after a time t=10 s:

[tex]\omega = \omega_i + \alpha t = 7.33 rad/s +(-0.24 rad/s^2)(10 s)=4.93 rad/s[/tex]

The distance of the tip of a blade from the centre is equal to half the diameter, so

[tex]r=\frac{80 cm}{2}=40 cm=0.40 m[/tex]

so, the speed of the tip of a blade is

[tex]v=\omega r=(4.93 rad/s)(0.4 m)=1.97 m/s[/tex]

The speed of the tip of a blade 10 s after the fan is turned off is 2.834m/s

The formula to be used to get the velocity of the tip of a blade is expressed as:

[tex]v=\omega r[/tex]

[tex]\omega[/tex] is the angular velocity

r is the radius of the ceiling fan

r = 80/2 = 40cm

To get the angular velocity, we will use the formula as shown:

[tex]\omega = \omega_0+\alpha t[/tex]

[tex]\alpha[/tex] is the angular acceleration

Get the angular acceleration:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}\\\alpha = \frac{0-7.33}{30}\\\alpha =0.244rad/s^2[/tex]

Get the final angular velocity [tex]\omega[/tex]

[tex]\omega = 7.33 +(-0.244)(10)\\\omega =7.33-2.44\\\omega =7.086rad/s[/tex]

Get the required speed of the tip of the blade.

[tex]v = \omega r\\v=7.086 \times 0.4\\v=2.834m/s[/tex]

Hence the speed of the tip of a blade 10 s after the fan is turned off is 2.834m/s
