The flywheel with a diameter of 10 cm is rotating at a rate

The flywheel with a diameter of 10 cm is rotating at a rate of 10 radians per second. What is the linear speed of a point on its rim. in centimeters per minute? The linear speed is approximately cm/min. (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest integer as needed)

Solution

Angular velocity = w = 10 rad/s

Radius = R = 5 cm

Then

Linear speed = v = R*w = 5*10 = 50 cm/s = 3000 cm/min
