How do i work out the LINEAR ACCELERATION (and LINEAR VELOCITY) for a point on the circumference of the FLYWHEEL at its max ROTATIONAL VELOCITY.
Please post the problem.
To work out the linear acceleration and linear velocity for a point on the circumference of a flywheel at its maximum rotational velocity, you need to know the radius of the flywheel and the angular velocity of the flywheel.
The linear acceleration of a point on the circumference of a rotating object is given by the formula:
a = r * α
Where:
a is the linear acceleration
r is the radius of the flywheel
α is the angular acceleration
The linear velocity of a point on the circumference of a rotating object is given by the formula:
v = r * ω
Where:
v is the linear velocity
r is the radius of the flywheel
ω is the angular velocity
To obtain the maximum values, you need to consider the maximum rotational velocity. The angular velocity (max ω) is given in terms of revolutions per unit time or radians per unit time. If you have the maximum rotational velocity in revolutions per minute (RPM), you need to convert it to radians per second.
To convert from RPM to radians per second, use the following conversion factor:
ω (in radians per second) = 2π * (RPM / 60)
Once you have the angular velocity in radians per second, you can calculate the linear acceleration and linear velocity using the formulas provided above.
