a bug on a turntable which is rotating at 2.00 radians over second sits there for 1.7 seconds before he is brushed away. What was the angular distance the bug traveled.
2.00 rad/s * 1.7 s = ? rad
To find the angular distance traveled by the bug, we can use the formula:
Angular distance = Angular speed × Time
Given:
Angular speed = 2.00 radians/second
Time = 1.7 seconds
Substituting the values into the formula:
Angular distance = 2.00 radians/second × 1.7 seconds
Angular distance = 3.4 radians
Therefore, the bug traveled an angular distance of 3.4 radians.
To find the angular distance traveled by the bug, we can use the formula:
Angular distance (θ) = Angular speed (ω) × Time (t)
Given:
Angular speed (ω) = 2.00 radians/second
Time (t) = 1.7 seconds
Using the formula, we can calculate the angular distance:
θ = ω × t
θ = 2.00 × 1.7
θ = 3.4 radians
Therefore, the angular distance traveled by the bug is 3.4 radians.
