NEED HELP ASAP. Please show all work. A point on a rotating wheel (thin hoop) having a constant angular velocity of 200 rev/min, the wheel has a radius of 1.2 m and a mass of 30 kg. ( I = mr2 ).
(a) (5 points) Determine the linear acceleration.
(b) (4 points) At this given angular velocity, what is the rotational kinetic energy?

Look at work

Explanation:

a) I am not sure if you want tangential or centripetal but I will give both

Centripetal acceleration = r*α

Since ω is constant, α is 0 so centripetal acceleration is 0m/s^2

Tangential acceleration = ω^2*r

convert 200rev/min into rev/s

200/60= 10/3 rev/s

a= 100/9*1.2= 120/9= 40/3 m/s^2

b) Rotational Kinetic Energy = 1/2Iω^2

I= mr^2

Plug in givens

I= 43.2kgm^2

K= 1/2*43.2*100/9=2160/9=240J

multiple

b.
