The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the angular velocity and linear velocity of the tip of the second's hand of a clock, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the problem We are given the length of the second's hand of a clock, which is 4 cm. We need to find both the angular velocity and the linear velocity of the tip of the second's hand. ### Step 2: Determine the angular velocity The second's hand completes one full rotation (360 degrees) in 60 seconds. - **Calculate the angle traversed in one second:** \[ \text{Angle traversed in 1 second} = \frac{360 \text{ degrees}}{60 \text{ seconds}} = 6 \text{ degrees} \] - **Convert degrees to radians:** We know that \(180 \text{ degrees} = \pi \text{ radians}\). Therefore, to convert 6 degrees to radians: \[ \text{Angle in radians} = 6 \times \frac{\pi}{180} = \frac{\pi}{30} \text{ radians} \] - **Calculate angular velocity (\(\omega\)):** Angular velocity is defined as the angle traversed per unit time: \[ \omega = \frac{\theta}{t} = \frac{\frac{\pi}{30} \text{ radians}}{1 \text{ second}} = \frac{\pi}{30} \text{ radians/second} \] ### Step 3: Determine the linear velocity The linear velocity (\(v\)) of the tip of the second's hand can be calculated using the formula: \[ v = r \cdot \omega \] where \(r\) is the radius (length of the second's hand). - **Convert the length of the second's hand to meters:** \[ r = 4 \text{ cm} = \frac{4}{100} \text{ meters} = 0.04 \text{ meters} \] - **Substituting the values into the linear velocity formula:** \[ v = 0.04 \text{ m} \cdot \frac{\pi}{30} \text{ radians/second} \] \[ v = \frac{0.04\pi}{30} \text{ m/s} \] \[ v = \frac{\pi}{750} \text{ m/s} \] ### Final Results - **Angular Velocity (\(\omega\))**: \(\frac{\pi}{30} \text{ radians/second}\) - **Linear Velocity (\(v\))**: \(\frac{\pi}{750} \text{ m/s}\)
