A Catapult throws a payload in a circle with an arm that is 65.0 cm long. At a certain instant, the arm is rotating at 8.0 rad/s and the angular speed is increasing at 40.0 rad/s2. For this instant, find the magnitude of the acceleration of the payload.

Sagot :

Answer:

The acceleration of the payload is 26 m/s2.

Explanation:

length, L = 65 cm =  0.65 m

angular acceleration = 40 rad/s^2

The acceleration is given by

a = angular acceleration x length

a = 40 x 0.65

a = 26 m/s^2
