What is the tangential speed of a point on a wheel of a car if the point is located 0.114 m from the axis of rotation; and the wheel is rotating at 6.53 rev/sec?

Sagot :

Answer:

Tangential speed = R * w  where w is the angular speed

For a wheel   v = .114 m * 6.53 / sec = .744 m/s

Note that this is the tangential speed - If the wheel were moving at speed V then as viewed from the ground you have

top V + v

bottom   V - v

That is the wheel also has speed due to the speed of the axle (axis of rotation)
