In a laundromat, during the spin-dry cycle of a washer, the rotating tub goes from rest to its maximum angular speed of 6.7 rev/s in 7.3 s. You lift the lid of the washer and notice that the tub decelerates and comes to a stop in 14.0 s. Assuming that the tub rotates with constant angular acceleration while it is starting and stopping, determine the total number revolutions undergone by the tub during this entire time interval. rev

The tub of a washer goes into its spin cycle, starting from rest and gaining angular speed steadily for 8s, at which time it is turning at 5 rev/s. At this point the person doing the laundry opens the lid, and a safetyswitch turns off the washer. The tub smoothly slows to rest in 12 s. Through how many revolutions doesthe tub turn while it is in motion?

Merry-go-rounds are a common ride in park playgrounds. The ride is a horizontal disk that rotates about a vertical axis at their center. A rider sits at the outer edge of the disk and holds onto a metal bar while someone pushes on the ride to make it rotate. Suppose that a typical time for one rotation is 6.0 ss and the diameter of the ride is 16 ftft . 1. For this typical time, what is the speed of the rider, in m/sm/s? Express your answer in meters per second. 2. What is the rider’s radial acceleration, in m/s2m/s2? Express your answer in meters per second squared. 3. What is the rider’s radial acceleration if the time for one rotation is halved? Express your answer in meters per second squared.
