Question

An insect trapped in a circular groove of radius 12 cm moves along the groove steadily and completes 7 revolution in 100 s. The linear speed of the insect is

Moderate
Solution

Here, r = 12 cm

             Frequency v = 7100Hz

The angular speed of the insect is

ω = 2πv = 2π ×7100 = 0.44 rad s-1

The linear speed of the insect is

v = ωr = 0.44×12 = 5.3  cm s-1
