1. In 1986 at the European Athletics Championship, Yuriy Sedkyh set the world record for men's hammer throw at 86.74 m. The 7.26 kg hammer took 0.5 seconds to complete the final revolution. Yuriy has an arm length of 63.5 cm and the average length for the men's hammer is 1.21 m. At the instant of release, the hammer had a radial acceleration of 425 rads/s. a. What was the linear distance traveled by the hammer during the last full revolution (2n rad) of the throw? b. What was the centripetal force acting on the hammer at release? c. What was the angular velocity of the hammer at release? d. What was the tangential velocity of the hammer at release?
