To throw the discus, the thrower holds it with a fully outstretched arm. Starting from rest, he begins to turn with a constant angular acceleration, releasing the discus after making one complete revolution. The diameter of the circle in which the discus moves is about 1.7m. If the thrower takes 1.2s to complete one revolution, starting from rest, what will be the speed of the discus at release?

In the given case, the speed of the discus at release, If the thrower takes 1.2s to complete one revolution, starting from rest would be - 8.90 m/s.

Given:

radius f the circle would be = 1.7/2 = 0.85 m

This rotation exercise can be treated using the rotation kinematics.

Angular acceleration:

θ = w₀ t + ½ α t²

t = 1.2 s to give a revolution (T = 2π rad) and with part of the rest the initial angular velocity is zero (wo = 0)

 =>  θ = 0 + ½ α t²

 => α = 2θ / t²

=>  α= 2 × 2π / 1.2²

 => α = 4π = 8.7266 rad / s²

Let's calculate the angular velocity:

=> w = wo + α t

=>  w = 0 + α t

=> w = 8.7266 × 1.2

=> w = 10.47192 rad / s

The relationship between linear and angular velocity is

=> r = d / 2

=> r = 1.7 / 2 = 0.85 m

=> v = w r

=> v = 10.47192 × 0.85  

=> v = 8.90 m / s

Thus, the correct speed would be - 8.90 m/s

Explanation:

Diameter of rotation d is 1.7 m

Radius of rotation = d/2 = 1.7/2 = 0.85 m

If he takes 1.2 sec to complete one revolution, then his angular speed is 1/1.2 = 0.83 rev/s

We convert to rad/s

Angular speed = 2 x pi x 0.83

= 2 x 3.142 x 0.83 = 5.22 rad/s

Speed is equal to the angular speed times the radius of rotation

Speed = 5.22 x 0.85 = 4.437 m/s
